Mark Cuban gets a lot of flak on Outkick, particularly over NBA ratings, so it is only fair to point out that it is genuinely cool and worthy of praise to see him help Delonte West try to turn his life around.
West is most known for his time on the Celtics and Cavaliers, but he also spent his last season in the NBA, 2011-12, playing for Mark Cuban’s Mavs.
West has been seen around the streets of Dallas in recent weeks, carrying a sign. TMZ reported on Wednesday that Cuban sought to meet with West, and ultimately connected with him and brought him to a hotel while West’s family strategized about what to do next. West’s family has reportedly been trying to convince him to go to rehab for a couple years.
Today, Shams Charania added:
Mark Cuban reached out to Delonte West's mother, Delphina Addison, asking how he can help. Answer was simple: Find Delonte.
Cuban did on Monday, waited with West until his mother arrived to hotel, and West finally took step many close to him have awaited: Entered rehab. 🙏🏽 https://t.co/IiVKGH3a62

Good for Cuban, and hopefully this is the first step in a turnaround for Delonte West.
That’s fine helping another human being that doesn’t change the fact he is a phony leftie all in with the chicoms and btw has not helped those two deputies who were almost assassinated one a young mother with a small child so lets keep it real .
That’s the thing that triggers most dystopians, Greg Plus…what you just did.
Pointing out the hypocrisy of the left is like chalk on their blackboards.
A self made billionaire who didn’t just inherit daddy’s money… Man what a loser…… He made it on his own…
Even a non-political article gets the trumpettes’ triggered. This is a sports website.
Ummmm….Exactly who is triggered? By your comments you seem the one who’s triggered.
BOOM
BOOM BOOM
I applaud Mark Cuban, however, Mr. West has to want to get help for himself first. I hope he finally gets back to a good spot in his life.
