The legal battle over the family’s remaining shares could determine whether Buss stays in charge of the franchise

Jeanie Buss’ future as governor of the Los Angeles Lakers remains uncertain. She is attempting to prevent her five siblings from selling the 17.8% stake still held by the family trust.

NBA rules require a governor to own at least 15% of a franchise. If the family’s remaining shares are sold, Buss could therefore lose her position, while acquiring additional equity appears difficult.

According to Buss’ court petition, minority owners Patrick Soon-Shiong and Ed Roski Jr., who collectively hold approximately 7%, do not intend to sell and support her leadership. However, Joshua Kushner is reportedly expected to become governor once the proposed acquisition is completed.
