With a fortune of around $200 billion, Jeff Bezos could afford all 30 NBA franchises! But the Amazon boss is not interested in sports, and the Sports Business Journal reports that rumors of a potential Celtics buyout are unfounded. “He has no intention of making an offer.” said a source close to the multi-billionaire. Owner of the Washington Post, Bezos has another passion besides sport, and that is the conquest of space with his Blue Origin rockets.
LeBron James will not be a shareholder of the Celtics…
Furthermore, we learn that Fenway Sports Group withdraws from the race to buy the teamaccording to Tony Massarotti. POwner of Liverpool Football Club, the Red Sox, the Pittsburgh Penguins, and also the Boston Globe, the group of John Henry and… LeBron James would not intend to spend several billion dollars to buy the NBA champions.
On the fans' side, we would be rather relieved because Fenway Sports has been dragging down the Red Sox for several years, by parting ways with the best players, and by recruiting no stars.
