Lakers Sold for Record $12.5B | Chicago News

from Chicago News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

The Lakers just hit a new record—selling for $12.5 billion to Josh Kushner and Bob Iger, smashing the previous mark set by Mark Walter just a year ago. This isn’t just a cash grab; it’s a strategic leap into owning NBA royalty, with Magic Johnson already praising the duo as championship-caliber owners. With federal scrutiny looming over Walter’s empire and the NBA board still needing approval, this deal could reshape the franchise’s future—and set a new standard for sports team valuations across America.
