The Dallas Mavericks have no plans to relocate to Las Vegas after the team’s blockbuster trade of superstar Luka Doncic to the Los Angeles Lakers.
After Saturday’s trade of Doncic to the Lakers for Anthony Davis and other pieces, rumors swirled regarding the swap possibly being made as a step toward the Mavs relocating from Dallas to Las Vegas.
Similar chatter began in 2023, when the families of Las Vegas Sands Corp. majority shareholder Dr. Miriam Adelson and Sands President and Chief Operating Officer Patrick Dumont purchased a majority ownership stake of the Mavericks from Mark Cuban.
But the team reiterated Tuesday that it is committed to Dallas.
