Mavericks' owner Mark Cuban said that his team had opportunities to move up in Thursday's draft but declined because of the steep price that some teams were placing on their assets, the Dallas Morning News is reporting.
"One of the teams drafting very high in the second round called and told us we could have their pick for $2 million and a second-rounder," Cuban said Saturday.
"It was outrageous. A team offered us half-a-million for [pick] 51, and we turned it down. People were asking, 'Why aren't you buying up?' We turned down half-a-million because we really, really like Shan."
The Mavericks selected Shan Foster with the 51st pick.
