Mark Cuban shakes his hip

Only months after a total hip replacement, billionaire entrepreneur and Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban is now a contestant on a top rated TV reality program.

Like hundreds of thousands active American men, Cuban suffered from severe and disabling osteoarthritis that robbed him of his agility. His new hip has given him back his active life—he’s up and down the sidelines with his beloved Dallas Mavericks again—and has opened the door to a new passion: ballroom dancing.

There are currently more than 500,000 hip replacements annually in the U.S., and experts predict an 80 percent increase in hip replacement procedures by 2030.

Too many people, though—especially men—wait too long to speak with a doctor about disabling pain because of common misconceptions about hip replacement. Mark Cuban is providing insight into the reality of hip replacement by sharing his experience before, during and in the exciting months since his hip replacement.
