The Buss family have sold Majority ownership (48%) of the Lakers for $4.8 Billion, Franchise valued at $10 Billion. Family still owns 18% stake.

Yes. The two most historic franchises who any billionaire would overspend to own shows the league is in a great state

I wonder why they would want to sell aside from the huge payday for selling.

The older Buss siblings want to sell because of the way their inheritance is said up. Every time one of the siblings passes away, their ownership gets split up to the rest of the living siblings instead of going to their children. So the youngest siblings eventually would end up with the whole team. So liquidating is the way for them to be able to control where their money goes after they die.

Not to mention this just raised the price of the brick for the ownership groups bidding for the expansion teams..they’re about to bust down another $10billion ($5+ billion per expansion team) in short order

In order to sell, someone has to buy, though. It'd be concerning if the Lakers sold for peanuts.

Not at all. But the Wizards or the T'Wolves ain't selling for half of that. Lakers/Celtics ain't the rest of the league. T'Wolves majority stake + the WNBA team went for less than $1.7 billie. The Lake Show by itself went for 10-figures. Not the same. The problem would've been if they sold for less

Glenn Taylor bought the team in 94' for $94million. Sold 30 years later for $1.5 billion. I'd say the league was doing just fine

Damn they was hating on the Baby Buss boys, who really might be the only ones worth a damn

My bad bruh....quoted your post by mistake. Didn't he try to renege on the sale due to the new valuation showing he was "losing out" on a shyt ton of dough tho?
