The Los Angeles Lakers will have a new ownership group running the show for the first time since 1979. The Buss Family has agreed to sell the majority of the team to Mark Walter in what was seen as a truly shocking move.

Walter, one of the owners of the Los Angeles Dodgers, will now take over the organization. However, it has been reported that Jeanie Buss will remain as the govenor of the team and that she will stay in control of things.

However, many have wondered how long this agreement would stay in place. After all, Walter purchased the Lakers from the Buss Family for $10 billion.

And when someone spends that type of money on something, it's hard for them to stay on the sidelines. ESPN NBA insider Shams Charnaia questioned this and predicted what the future may hold for Jeanie.

"It seems like both sides are on the same page..At the end of the day when you're buying a team for ten billion dollars I don't know how long you're gonna wanna sit on the sidelines"
