Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban is one of the best follows on social media, whether you’re a sports fan or not.

If it’s not a political back-and-forth, or sounding off the issues of the day, Cuban will be surprisingly open to the world, and often surprises his followers by responding to their questions or comments.

Not a lot of billionaires do that.

That’s probably one of the reasons why he has more than eight million followers on Twitter, the most of any sports-related figure in the area.

In 2022, you’re nobody until you’re somebody on social media, and that goes for athletes, sports executives and owners, too.
