Melissa Weishaupt believes it's time she becomes more than an anonymous voice.
A month after Weishaupt's anonymous statements to Sports Illustrated were featured prominently in a story detailing a Dallas Mavericks corporate culture prevalent with predatory sexual behavior and misogyny, she attached her name and face to her comments Tuesday.
Weishaupt wrote a first-person essay published by Sports Illustrated's website Tuesday about her experiences working in marketing and game operations for the Mavericks from 2010 to 2014 and why she believes owner Mark Cuban still doesn't recognize the problem. In an extensive interview Tuesday with The Dallas Morning News, Weishaupt opened up about how she became a target of former Mavericks president/CEO Terdema Ussery.
