Lakers Ownership Changes Hands Again | Los Angeles Lakers News

from Los Angeles Lakers News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

The Lakers are changing hands again—Mark Walter sells his majority stake to Bob Iger and Josh Kushner for $12.5 billion, just under a year after acquiring the team. The Buss family, who originally sold the team to Walter, are also exiting entirely, with four of six siblings agreeing to sell their shares. This ends a legendary 45-year legacy marked by 11 championships. With the Buss family out, Jeanie Buss can no longer serve as governor, likely paving the way for Iger to take the reins. The swift ownership shift sets the stage for a new era—and a fascinating new chapter for the franchise. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
