He also appeared to troll Trump by wearing No. 46, which is almost certainly a reference to Trump being the 45th president and whoever replaces him being the 46th.
When asked before the game about wearing No. 46, Cuban gave ESPN what was described as a "tongue-in-cheek" answer, saying that it was only because he couldn't get the more popular No. 23.
