The NBA Board of Governors approved Mark Cuban's sale of the controlling interest in the Dallas Mavericks to casino mogul Miriam Adelson and her family.
Patrick Dumont, Adelson's son-in-law and the president and CEO of Las Vegas Sands Corp., will serve as the Mavericks' governor.
The transaction is expected to close this week, according to a news release from the league on Wednesday.
According to earlier reports, Cuban is expected to maintain control of the Mavericks' basketball operations.
