Sivan and Patrick Dumont purchased Miriam Adelson's shares of the franchise last month, a deal that pushes the Dumont family's stake to roughly 69 percent.\n\nThe move formalizes what had been a gradual shift in power atop the organization. Adelson's family had been the public face of Mavericks ownership since taking over from Mark Cuban, but the Dumonts have steadily increased their involvement, and this purchase makes their control official.\n\nWith nearly 70 percent of the team now in Dumont hands, the family holds decisive say over the franchise's direction, from front office decisions to the team's business operations. The Mavericks have not commented beyond confirming the ownership change, and it remains to be seen whether the new controlling owners will make any immediate changes to how the team is run.","published_at":"2026-11-03T23:33:12.288917+00:00","source_count":3,"written_from":[{"outlet":"The Athletic","publisher":"The Athletic","title":"Dumont family purchases Miriam Adelson's shares of the Dallas Mavericks","url":"https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/7751262/2026/11/03/patrick-dumont-adelson-ownership-dallas-mavericks/"},{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"Patrick Dumont family became controlling owners of Mavericks last month","url":"https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/patrick-dumont-family-became-controlling-203659166.html"},{"outlet":"ESPN","publisher":"ESPN","title":"Dumonts now controlling owners of Mavs with nearly 70% share","url":"https://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/50371176/dumonts-take-controlling-owners-mavericks"}],"more_coverage":[{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"Dumont family takes controlling ownership of Mavericks after purchasing shares from Miriam Adelson","url":"https://sports.yahoo.com/nba/article/dumont-family-takes-controlling-ownership-of-mavericks-after-purchasing-shares-from-miriam-adelson-214154371.html"},{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"Patrick Dumont reveals plans to buy most of Mark Cuban’s remaining Mavericks shares after franchise takeover","url":"https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/patrick-dumont-reveals-plans-buy-223006147.html"}],"image":{"url":"https://static01.nyt.com/athletic/uploads/wp/2026/11/03151439/2026-03-02T032939Z_608203038_MT1USATODAY28378615_RTRMADP_3_NBA-OKLAHOMA-CITY-THUNDER-AT-DALLAS-MAVERICKS-scaled.jpg","credit":"The Athletic","width":2560},"embed":null,"license":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/","attribution":"Analysis data is licensed CC BY 4.0.
