Shams:The Buss family will reach an agreement with TWG Global CEO and Chairman Mark Walter to sell a majority stake in the Lakers.Jeanie Buss will continue to be the manager of the team after the team is sold.
Cuban: That's what I thought about selling the Mavericks for $3.5 billion, and as a result, I was slowly losing decision-making power, otherwise Doncic wouldn't have been forced to bring his talent to Los Angeles.
It is reportedThe Lakers' deal was valued at a terrifying $10 billion, setting a record for the highest transaction price for a professional sports team in the world.The former owner of the Lakers bought the Lakers in 1979 for $67.5 million, which also included the Los Angeles Kings (NHL) and Los Angeles Forum Arena, as well as a 13,000-acre ranch.
Mavericks reporter Kevin Gray Jr. posted that the teams Doncic has played for in the past 20 months have been sold for a total of nearly $14 billion.
To get back to the point, the Buss family made a lot of money in the deal, and the future direction of the Lakers began to become extremely uncertain.
In recent years, the NBA has set off a trend of high-level cash-out, such as the Celtics, who are also giants with the Lakers, just won the 18th championship in team history last year, and the Grossbeck family couldn't wait to sell the team, and successfully sold it for $6.1 billion in March this year, and then the team is now on the verge of disintegration due to salary pressure, and there is a high probability of trading Holiday and Platinum and others this summer offseason.
Today's Lakers may repeat the mistakes of the Celtics. Of course, no matter how the Lakers change, the 26-year-old Doncic is still quite safe, and he is afraid that he is afraid of the team's new talker, and he is not very interested in the 40-year-old James......
Previously, it was revealed that James may jump out of his contract this summer and sign a 1+1 contract (second-year player option) with the Lakers that is close to the maximum salary, and it contains a trade veto. However, now that the Lakers management has changed dramatically, it may force James to rethink the future.
James is still quite capable of playing, averaging 24.4 points, 7.8 rebounds, 8.2 assists and 1 steal per game in the regular season this season, and 25.4 points, 9 rebounds, 5.6 assists and 2 steals per game in the playoffs, but the age of 40 is indeed a huge problem, and any team with him is destined to be based on the present first, and then start to develop in the future.
What do the Yanzu think about this? The comment area boldly opens the microphone and goes crazy to the line!
