CUBAN'S CORNER

Mavericks owner Mark Cuban missed his second game of the preseason Sunday night in Sacramento, Calif. Cuban was expected to attend, but wasn't on the team charter Saturday and didn't come into town Sunday.

A Mavericks spokesperson said that even though Cuban didn't make the flight, it was thought he would be in Arco Arena by game time. A room at the team hotel was reserved for Cuban.

Cuban has a home in Los Angeles. Maybe the billionaire made the trip to the West Coast and instead of heading to the state capital, hit the beach.

Would you blame him?
