I think Cuban won't be following as players like him.

Sterling divided.

I wasn't sure as Woj was only suspended for 2 weeks for mailing F-u to a senator.

Mavericks Fire Tony Ronzone

The Dallas Mavericks have fired Tony Ronzone after learning of new information pertaining to a sexual assault allegation.

Ronzone was the director of player personnel for the Mavericks.

Sports Illustrated reported in July that a woman said Ronzone had forced himself on her in his Las Vegas hotel room during the NBA's annual summer league in July 2019. According to the report, the woman said Ronzone forcibly kissed her, groped her, pinned her on a bed and placed her hand on his crotch after he had invited her to his hotel to give her summer league tickets.

At the time, the Mavericks called the Sports Illustrated report a "one-sided, incomplete and sensational form of journalism, with its inaccuracies, mischaracterizations and omissions" in a statement shortly after it was published last summer.

The Mavericks have now reversed course.

Hmmmm... Kept the guy hired for years after.

I get the idea of presumed innocence... but typically these things have some patterns... how deep did the Mavs dig initially and what did they find out now?

The lawsuit also alleges that Cuban offered Nelson, who was fired in June, $52 million to withdraw a wrongful termination claim and sign a confidentiality statement related to the alleged harassment and abuse of his nephew.

Nelson, in his lawsuit filed in Dallas County court, says that Jason Lutin, described in the lawsuit as Cuban's "right-hand man" and who still works for the team, assaulted and harassed his nephew in a hotel room during the 2020 All-Star Weekend in Chicago. The nephew, a man in his 20s who is not identified in the lawsuit, had been invited by Lutin to his hotel room, the lawsuit says.

Regarding the alleged sexual assault by Lutin during All-Star Weekend, the lawsuit says that Nelson asked Lutin if he would visit with his nephew about job possibilities with the Mavericks and in the sports and entertainment industry. Nelson's nephew attended a lunch hosted by Don Nelson. The lawsuit includes a photo of the lunch guests, including Lutin and the nephew.

After lunch, Lutin invited Nelson's nephew to meet him in Lutin's hotel room "to discuss job possibilities," the lawsuit says.

"Lutin asked Nelson's nephew to sit next to him on the bed and then sexually harassed and sexually assaulted an unsuspecting, vulnerable LGBTQ young man seeking employment with the Mavericks," the lawsuit states. "Lutin's numerous policy violations and indiscretions were clearly in breach of the Mavericks supposed 'zero-tolerance' policy."
