Buss siblings oppose Jeanie Buss' bid to block Lakers stake sale

The Buss family's legal dispute over the sale of their remaining stake in the Los Angeles Lakers continues. On October 7, Jim, Johnny, Janie, Joey, and Jessie Buss filed formal opposition in Los Angeles Superior Court against their sister Jeanie Buss, who seeks to prevent the sale of the family's 17.8% stake. Jeanie filed a petition claiming the sale aims to remove her as the team's governor and argues it lacks financial sense. The siblings emphasize their commitment to ensure all beneficiaries are treated equally, amid ongoing discussions. A court hearing is set for December 8, as they navigate their father's trust provisions regarding ownership transfer.
