Mark Cuban’s team claimed that former Mavericks general manager Donnie Nelson had tried to extort as much as $100 million.
that he was terminated last year after telling the billionaire that a team executive had sexually harassed and assaulted his nephew.on Friday, Cuban’s attorneys disputed those claims and alleged that former Dallas Mavericks GM Donnie Nelson had threatened to leak comprising information, including the sexual orientation of a team employee, unless he secured what was, “in effect, a blackmail payment” as high as $100 million.
Subsequently, however, Lutin allegedly invited the unnamed nephew back to his hotel room ostensibly to talk about potential jobs. Instead, according to Nelson’s claims, he sexually harassed and assaulted him. The filings did not provide extensive details on the alleged misconduct. Nelson’s lawsuit claimed that he eventually became aware of the alleged assault and confronted Cuban multiple times about the situation.
According to the filing, Nelson approached the billionaire over the summer of 2020 with “purported scandalous allegations from a family member” that he said he could “‘make go away’ in exchange for a long-term employment contract.” “The one curious exception was Nelson,” the filing said. It further claimed that the allegations involving Nelson’s nephew “were not as sensational” as the former GM has now outlined in court documents and that no assault took place. Cuban’s response did not dispute, however, that Nelson’s nephew had received a financial settlement.
