175 times in 46 years! Bass sets a new record for professional sports sales for Lakers, with 10 billion left James beyond the reach of the world

ESPN reporter Shams revealed that the latest news of the Lakers! The Bass family reportedly reached an agreement with Mark Walter, CEO of diversified holding company TWG Global, who will acquire a majority stake in the Los Angeles Lakers for about $10 billion, which means that the Lakers boss will change hands.

From the latest Forbes releases the 2024-25 NBA team market value rankings, it can be seen that the Golden State Warriors topped the list with US$8.8 billion, the New York Knicks ranked second with US$7.5 billion, and the Lakers ranked first with US$7.1 billion; the Celtics market value reached US$6 billion; the Los Angeles Clippers team built by Ballmer is worth US$5.5 billion; 6-10: Chicago Bulls $5 billion, Houston Rockets $4.9 billion, Brooklyn Nets $4.8 billion, Dallas Mavericks $4.7 billion and Philadelphia 76ers $4.6 billion.

It can be seen that after Xiao Hua's series of reforms, the market value of NBA teams has been on the rise, especially after the introduction of the gambling industry, the NBA has shown prosperity in performance, but it is undeniable that the NBA is now on a downward trend, and the game viewing is being destroyed by the small ball era!

Back to the point, the transaction price of $10 billion will directly become the highest transaction price record for professional sports teams in the world. Jenny Buss will still serve as honorary chairman of the Lakers after the transaction is completed. This means that the Bath Dynasty, which ruled the 46ers of the Lakers, is about to withdraw from the stage of history.

You should know that Jerry Bass bought the Lakers from Cook for $67.5 million in 1979. After Bass died in 2013, the team was inherited by his children. Oh my God! Now, the Lakers' equity sold for $10 billion is not all. According to reports, the Bass family still retains 15% of the equity! This means that the Lakers' market value has increased by more than 148 times in 46 years, but 175 times! This is a ROI!

Today, the Lakers are already a giant team with 17 championships, and are also a team that many NBA fans follow. Now that the team boss has changed hands, I wonder what changes will happen to this team in the future? The first thing that will be affected will be Doncic's contract in the offseason. Of course, I don't know whether this impact is good or bad!

According to reports, Walter has multiple professional sports organizations, currently the Los Angeles Dodgers, the Los Angeles Sparks, Billy Jane Cup, Cadillac Formula One Racing Team and the Professional Women's Hockey League! Now that the Los Angeles Lakers are added, this big guy is probably the leader in the sports world!

It was previously rumored that James intends to become the boss of the Lakers, and now his market value of 10 billion is beyond the reach of James! According to the latest data, James' worth is no more than $2 billion, even with some of James's businesses, it is far from 10 billion. Therefore, don't think about the James Lakers! You can consider the 31st team that Xiao Hua started to build.

46 times increased 148 times! Bass set a new record for selling Lakers in professional sports, with 10 billion being out of reach for James! In my opinion, the Bass family is really profitable! From Magic to Kobe, and from Kobe to James, the Lakers have made countless money for the Bass family.
