$750K is a small price to pay if it nets phenom Victor Wembanyama. Of course it's a gamble but projections make it worth the chance. Mark can make $750K on commercials. e.g. Cube Tube socks.

Dallas Mavericks hit with $750k fine for sitting players with playoff hopes alive

Losing that game and missing the play-in tournament could help ensure that Dallas have a top-10 draft pick this summer and with it, potentially a chance of winning the lottery and getting the opportunity to select French phenom Victor Wembanyama.

    Mark Cuban is matching the NBA’s fine for tanking, and donating another $750,000 to charity, per @dalton_trigg.

The lesson here is to start your tanking early enough so everybody takes it for granted by the end of the season.
