Yes…its official! The Los Angeles Clippers new owner is Steve Ballmer
The Clippers sale was completed today for a whopping $2 BILLION making the former Microsoft CEO the new NBA owner.
Ballmer shared in his excitement by releasing the following statement,
Clipper fans are so amazing. They have remained fiercely loyal to our franchise through some extraordinary times. I will be hard core in giving the team, our great coach, staff and players the support they need to do their best work on the court. And we will do whatever necessary to provide our fans and their families with the best game-night experience in the NBA”.
It will be interesting to see how Clippers new Head Coach Doc Rivers works with Ballmer. Lets just hope he doesn’t have any ways of the former owner, Donald Sterling!
Californians weigh in….. What do you think about the new owner?
