1:15Now PlayingJosh Kushner and Bob Iger are buying the Los Angeles Lakers basketball team for a record-breaking price of $12.5 billion, according to people familiar with the matter. #lakers #basketball #sports #news #losangeles
The deal represents a longtime dream of Iger, who has overseen billion-dollar NBA rights contracts for Disney’s ESPN division, but not owned a professional basketball team.
The Lakers’ sale price is the highest ever for a professional sports franchise, exceeding the $9.6 billion paid for the National Football League’s Seattle Seahawks in July.
