    Looks like private equity is going to own a good percentage of pro sports. Probably college football at some point with new alignments.

    This is horrible news for those of us who despise the Lakers.

    The Buss family actually wasn't that wealthy comparatively speaking. They avoided the luxury tax and were thrifty.

    Now they're going to have way more resources.

    That seems really low considering.. is recently in the last few years or last few month? If possibly precovid, id take those valuations and toss em out the window.

    Not Forbes, but... CNBC’s Official NBA Team Valuations 2025

    Golden State Warriors $9.4 Billion
    New York Knicks $7.5 Billion
    Los Angeles Lakers - $7 Billion

    They still have to abide by the CBA. Just throwing money at it won't fix it.

    So let me get this straight….

    Luka traded to the Lakers in Feb 1st for a shit return.

    Mavs win the lottery and get Flagg

    Lakers are sold 4 months later for 10 billion.

    Sure….seems legit.
