The Dallas Mavericks will receive their title rings exactly one week from now, and their owner Mark Cuban is spending quite a bit of scratch on them. Per the Dallas Morning News: “In addition, every other departed member of the championship squad will get his ring at AAC.

Cuban, by the way, said before Monday’s game with the Los Angeles Lakers that the bill for the championship rings is going to run him about $1.4 million. ‘Ridiculous,’ he said.”
