According to Forbes.com, the team has never owned the domain name, which currently belongs to a New Mexico-based company called Cyber Mesa Computer Systems. The company attempted to goad the team into purchasing the address for $5 million in 2012 by redirecting the site to various other NBA teams, including the Knicks and the Heat.

The current highest bid for the website is a much more reasonable $30,300 as of 12:30 ET on Wednesday, with the auction set to close at 6:30 p.m.

Although Cuban's face is front and center on the auction, the Mavericks owner is not believed to be involved in the domain name caper, according to BuzzFeed.
