TL;DR
Jeanie Buss is attempting to block the Buss family’s remaining 17.8% stake in the Los Angeles Lakers from being sold to the Bob Iger–led group (with Josh Kushner) as part of a wider $12.5 billion deal for controlling interest; her lawyer says she must approve any sale as a co-trustee to maintain a minimum 15% ownership and calls the proposed vote void, signaling a fiduciary dispute within the family.
