Jeanie Buss disputes family’s plan to sell Lakers stake
Jeanie Buss is challenging her relatives’ move to sell the family’s remaining Lakers ownership share to Josh Kushner and Bob Iger.
Jeanie Buss is contesting her family’s plan to sell the Buss family’s remaining stake in the Los Angeles Lakers, according to reports on Monday. The dispute could affect who controls the NBA team’s day-to-day leadership.
ESPN reported that the family’s share is being sold to Josh Kushner and Bob Iger. CBS Sports said the transaction would leave Jeanie Buss without her role as the Lakers’ governor if it goes through.
Yahoo Sports reported that Buss addressed her siblings in a letter and said the matter was not settled. The reports did not say when any sale would be completed.
The Lakers have been owned by the Buss family since Jerry Buss bought the team in 1979, and Jeanie Buss has served as the public face of the franchise in recent years.
