A year later, he was fined $100,000 by the league for his unconventional methods of team leadership, he tells CNBC Make It.

He still leans on his interpersonal leadership approach today, often providing advice, building connections and offering mentorship to contestants on ABC's "Shark Tank." If you're struggling with your own leadership style, Cuban recommends figuring out what being a leader actually means to you.

☆ The NBA In-Season Tournament is confusing people. Ratings are still through the roof

The NBA In-Season Tournament, running this year for the first time, is the league’s idea for that mid-season boost. The media rights to NBA games are up after the 2024-2025 season, and the tournament could make the NBA’s television rights more lucrative to potential networks and streaming bidders. To add intrigue to the tournament, each of the 30 NBA teams has a distinct court design and jersey for games. The NBA’s strategy behind the colorful court designs was to attract attention — even if some of the reaction to the courts has been negative. The NBA in-season tournament is the latest example of sports leagues adapting to try to add excitment in an increasingly competitive media environment.
