Apart from being one of the greatest point guards to ever play the game, Los Angeles Lakers icon Magic Johnson is also a loving father to his three kids.

Well, technically speaking, Johnson's offspring are no longer children. His eldest, Andre, is now 44. His second son, EJ, is 32. The Hall of Famer has one daughter, Elisa, 30, who is his second child with his wife, Cookie.

On Monday, Johnson played the role of a proud dad to Elisa, who officially entered the highly lucrative world of jewelry. Elisa Johnson launched her own jewelry brand, and her father was clearly excited about the big news.

"I am so incredibly proud of my beautiful daughter @elisajohnson! She just launched Elisa Johnson jewelry available now at @elisajohnson.co," he wrote.

Elise Johnson will now be hoping to follow in the footsteps of her father in terms of having a highly successful business. Since retiring from the sport in 1996, the five-time NBA champion has built quite a business portfolio.

According to Forbes, the 65-year-old currently has a net worth of $1.5 billion, making him one of the wealthiest former professional athletes in the world.

Johnson is a part-owner of a number of professional sports teams, including the Washington Commanders of the NFL, the Los Angeles Dodgers of the MLB, the Los Angeles Sparks of the WNBA and Los Angeles FC of the MLS.

On top of that, he is the Chairman and CEO of Magic Johnson Enterprises, which is an investment company that focuses on restaurants, theaters, real estate and more. One of the company's claims to fame is being the only franchise in the history of Starbucks. Johnson, however, has since sold all 125 of his Starbucks branches across America.
