After working in the Dallas Mavericks front office for nearly two decades, Terdema Ussery has left the team to take over as Under Armour's president of global operations, per Earl K. Sneed of Mavs.com.
Brad Townsend of the Dallas Morning News reported that Floyd Jahner, Dallas' current chief financial officer, will assume Ussery's role when he officially departs.
