Cuban Backs A’s Vegas Move | Oakland Athletics News

Mark Cuban’s back in the sports game—this time with a minority stake in the Oakland Athletics, as they prep to relocate to Las Vegas by 2028. His firm, Harbinger Sports Partners, is part of a $550M fundraising push for a $2B Vegas ballpark, joining big names like Aramark and a Korean consortium including BTS’s Suga. The A’s, valued at $2B and MLB’s 18th most valuable team, are eyeing a Vegas Strip entertainment mega-hub. It’s Cuban’s latest play in his long-running quest to own a MLB team—after years of chasing the Pirates, Cubs, Rangers, and Dodgers—and comes as he exits his Mavericks majority stake. Sports passion?
