Jeanie Buss opposes selling her family's 17.8% stake in the Los Angeles Lakers to Bob Iger and Joshua Kushner, stating she remains the controlling owner per a 2017 court order and any sale requires consent of the co-trustees. The letter argues that a sale would breach fiduciary duties if the co-trustees vote otherwise, and notes the deal would have given Iger and Kushner about 83% overall ownership after purchasing Mark Walter’s stake; Buss says she wants to hold the stake for value and to maintain her governor role as the matter unfolds.

Lakers Sale Brings Front-Office Uncertainty as Iger and Kushner Take Ownership

The Lakers have agreed to a sale to Joshua Kushner and Bob Iger, with team president Rob Pelinka reportedly empowered to continue leading the front office under owner Mark Walter, though his tenure may hinge on the next six months as the new ownership group sets direction.
