Mark Cuban's son, Jake Cuban, may have gone a little over the top when celebrating Mavericks star Klay Thompson's clutch shot in Thursday's win over the Hornets. Thompson turned back the clock with a vintage corner 3-point shot to bail out Dallas on a near-broken play after Kyrie Irving chased his own miss.

He dished it to Thompson, who made a heavily contested shot and gave the Mavericks a six-point separation with 1:48 left in the game.

Klay Thompson joined the Mavericks on a three-year $50,000,000 contract. The former Warriors champion has been solid for the team as a third or fourth option, averaging 14.0 points and 3.5 rebounds on 40.1% 3-point shooting after going 38.7% last year with Golden State.

He was the team's third-best scorer against the Hornets, tallying 18 points on 6-of-12 shots, including 4-of-7 from 3.


Mark Cuban's son, Jake Cuban, was just as hurt as anyone after Mavericks shockingly traded Luka Doncic

"Ouch," Jake Cuban wrote in his Instagram story after Lakers released picks of Doncic in the Purple and Gold for the first time.

In a separate post, Jake shared a teary-eyed emoji after videos of Mavericks fans mourning Doncic's departure to the Lakers went viral. Despite still being around the Mavericks after selling his majority stake, Mark Cuban claimed he had no idea of the trade.

He tried to stop it once he was informed, but the Mavericks didn't listen. The deal eventually went through, with Dallas acquiring another All-NBA player in return from the Lakers in Anthony Davis, along with young 3-and-D prospect Max Christie and a 2029 first-round pick.
