When the American Airlines Center opened in 2001, the Mavericks locker room was regarded as cutting edge — each locker had a TV and a PlayStation 2.
Yes, it was time for an upgrade.
Mark Cuban and the Mavs unveiled their new digs on Saturday afternoon, showing off major renovations to the locker room and training area. Every aspect of design was backed by science and research as Cuban said he wanted a competitive edge in every possible way.
The lights and colors are specifically picked to promote “physical and mental realization” while Cuban said he talked to casinos and how they keep people comfortable and alert 24 hours a day, which Cuban said was linked to flowing in fresh oxygen at maximum levels.
