New Lakers owner Bob Iger told @khobi_price that Mark Walter’s agreement with Jeanie Buss to be LAL’s governor for at least five years will remain in place after Iger and Josh Kushner take over the team when the sale goes through
@jayOvOmal@ramonashelburne Ramona just said on NBA Today that Jeanie’s contract goes with the sale from Mark Walter so her and all of upper management are in flux 🫣
Being a Laker means everything to me, and I’m excited to get back on the court and bring a championship to LA. I’ve gotten used to big changes over these last few years, but I know that no matter what, there is no limit to the potential of this iconic franchise. I look forward to meeting Josh and Bob so we can get to work building something special in LA together.
"Walter has since come under federal investigation for alleged tax fraud involving insurance companies he controls... It is unclear to what degree that situation is connected to the Lakers sale, if at all, but the reselling of the franchise still represents one of the most surprising events in recent sports history." @AEricFisher@FOS
