Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban personally picked up Delonte West at a Dallas-area gas station on Monday in an attempt to help the former NBA player.
Cuban, according to TMZ and ESPN, had been trying to get in contact with West for days after photos of him panhandling in the Dallas area surfaced last week. He finally connected with West at a gas station and reportedly took him to a local hospital.
Cuban, along with West’s family and friends, have been trying to get him to go to a drug rehabilitation facility — something Cuban has offered to pay for.
