 PROFILE
While hoop dreams in Big D have often been more like nightmares, these mavericks are bucking the trend. Formed in 1980 by millionaire Donald Carter, the Dallas Mavericks basketball franchise has contended only once -- in 1987 -- for a championship title and struggled through a decade of losing seasons during the 1990s. But under principal owner Mark Cuban (co-founder of broadcast.com), fan interest, corporate sponsorships, and playoff series victories have all returned. The team is also moving into the $350 million American Airlines Center, a replacement for the aging Reunion Arena, in 2001. Cuban bought the Mavs in 2000, paying a group of investors headed by Ross Perot Jr. (son of the outspoken Texas billionaire) $280 million.
