One of the biggest sharks on Shark Tank is planning to make a splash elsewhere after next season.

The popular ABC reality show is in its 15th season, but Mark Cuban announced last week that he plans to leave after the 16th season ends.

Its time, the Dallas Mavericks owner said on the All the Smoke basketball podcast.

Cuban joined Shark Tank in its second season as a guest before becoming a full-time panelist in the third season, according to Deadline.

Cuban didnt say why he was leaving Shark Tank in May 2025, but it doesnt seem to be because the investor is sick of it based on the positive comments about the show he made on the podcast.

I love it because it sends the message the American dream is alive and well, Cuban explained. I feel like in doing Shark Tank all these years, weve trained multiple generations of entrepreneurs that if somebody can come from Iowa or Sacramento or wherever, and show up on the carpet of Shark Tank and show their business and get a deal, thats going to inspire generations of kids. Thats what happens, right?

Cuban said he does feel weird when people tell him theyve been watching him since they were 10 years old.

Im like, fuck. But were helping them, right? Ive invested in, I dont know how many hundreds of companies. On a cash basis, Im down a little bit, but on mark to market meeting, the companies are still in operation. Im way up.

HuffPost reached out to ABC for comment, but no one immediately responded. However, Cuban has alluded to leaving before.
