Billionaire. Entrepreneur. Shark. 

Now we can add Anthem Kneeler to Dallas Mavericks' owner Mark Cuban's long list of titles. 

According to The New York Post, Cuban is the latest professional sports icon to get WOKE:

In an interview with ESPN’s “Outside the Lines” on Thursday, Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban was asked what his reaction would be if he saw Mavericks players not standing during the anthem.
“If they were taking a knee and they were being respectful, I’d be proud of them. Hopefully I’d join them,” he said.
Considering NBA rules explicitly state that players and coaches must stand during the national anthem, Cuban mentioned that he hopes the league can “allow players to do what’s in their heart.”
“Whether it’s holding their arm up in the air, whether it’s taking a knee, whatever it is, I don’t think this is an issue of respect or disrespect to the flag or to the anthem or to our country,” he said. “I think this is more a reflection of our players’ commitment to this country and the fact that it’s so important to them that they’re willing to say what’s in their heart and do what they think is right.
