Ranked 3rd from the bottom in the NBA rankings, the Dallas Mavericks continue to face turbulence due to negative consequences from the evils within the team.

Owner Mark Cuban of the NBA team Dallas Mavericks just went through  a stressful 24 hours when  he received a $600,000 fine for making unreasonable statements about tanking intentions (accepting poor performance to get a good Draft pick). . However, the above amount of money is not worth the trouble compared to resolving the sex scandal that has shocked the NBA media over the past 2 days.

As Marb Cuban said: “This is unacceptable because it will affect the team’s reputation.” Indeed, as investigative reports increasingly appear, it is clear that the Dallas Mavericks are suffering a major blow to the team’s image.

24 stressful hours for Mark Cuban, who said he would fiercely handle the problems within the Mavericks.

An hour before Maverick’s first game of the 2010-11 NBA season was broadcast on national television, deep inside the American Airlines Center stadium, an employee of the support team was sitting in his room eating dinner. Food for the media. When this woman sat down, the president of the Mavericks at the time, Terdema Ussery, walked up, pulled out a chair and asked if he could sit with her.

The employee became worried, not only because Ussery was an extremely high-ranking leader in the football team, but also because of many rumors related to this character’s sexual harassment. As expected, Ussery quickly revealed his bad habit when he opened his mouth: “I seem to know what you will do this weekend.” The woman felt confused and tried to ask again what the meaning of this statement was.

“You will participate in the mass riot, right?”, Ussery pressed his voice. “Are not. In fact, I’m going to see a movie with my friends,” the harassed victim replied decisively. However, Ussery continued: “No. You will definitely have a group orgy.”

The victim was startled but not surprised. When she first got a job at Mavericks in 2010, she shared her joy with her group of female colleagues here. Instead of congratulating her, they gave her a warning: “Beware of the Executive Chairman. Whatever you do, never get stuck in the same elevator as him.”

The protagonist of the scandal, former Maverick executive Terdema Ussery.

This is also the story of the woman who recently made sexual harassment accusations against former Maverick president and CEO Terdema Ussery. And when the Investigation Committee got involved, other detailed denunciation information was gathered, creating a real shock for the current owner of the Mavericks, Mr. Mark Cuban.

At first, when hearing the term “sexual harassment”, the media was distracted into the locker room, where complicated relationships between players and other staff can easily occur. But according to the witness: “I have had hundreds of interactions with the players and never had any problems. They always know how to treat people. Then I worked in the leaders’ office and realized it was like a zoo, full of gossip.”

Many former female employees who worked at American Airlines Centers contacted the media after hearing the accusations. Their offerings are very detailed.

Sometime in August or September 2007, Ussery stopped a female employee at the main door of the stadium and told her “I will seriously consider this.” Ussery is referring to the suggestion that if there was another life, would the girl marry him or not? The girl immediately replied: “If I had another life, I would become a millionaire and own this football team. Until then, you won’t be able to work for me.”

The scandal does not stop at Ussery alone, but is being questioned about the entire working environment at Dallas Mavericks. According to another witness, in August 2013, after experiencing harassment from Ussery, she bravely raised the issue with her direct boss, Paul Monroe.

Monroe made an appointment with the girl in a car. Here, he used words to threaten, “Just keep your mouth shut and do your job.” Because he (Ussery) is the big boss.” Before that, Ussery was said to have come and sat next to the girl, chatted and placed his hand deep on her thigh.

In addition to Monroe, there are other allegations pointing to the name of Earl Sneed, the radio staff of Mavs.com (Mavs.com’s official website). Sneed also allegedly engaged in concealing, intimidating, and imitating Ussery’s harassing solicitations.

Earl Sneed, the second most accused person after Ussery for harassment.

Not only Mark Cuban has a headache in reviewing the internal organization where he owns, but even the NBA board cannot ignore it. They all affirmed: “The accusations related to Ussery go against the commitment from NBA teams – to always maintain civility and respect between employees. This behavior is truly unacceptable. We will closely monitor the investigation process of this incident.”

The Mavericks are also actively investigating and reviewing all personnel within the organization. In the immediate future, one employee was fired, former human resources director Buddy Pittman, for concealing internal evils.

Sneed is awaiting the results of an expanded investigation, while Ussery left his job at Mavericks three years ago to take the position of market director at sports company Under Armour. After 2 months of work, Ussery was fired by Under Armor due to another harassment allegation against employees there. Continuing with this latest allegation, Ussery will face a more in-depth and drastic investigation.
