Browns owners Jimmy and Dee Haslam and the Haslam Sports Group are interested in buying a stake in the Bucks, Sportico reports. Haslam would buyout Milwaukee co-owner Marc Lasry’s 25% stake in the team.
Lasry has been a primary co-owner of the team along with Wes Edens since the two bought the franchise in 2014 for $550 million. According to Sportico, both Lasry and Edens alternated five-year stretches as primary governor of the franchise, and Lasry’s stretch is up at the end of next year, with Edens preparing to take back the position in the Fall of 2024.
The Athletic’s Shams Charania reports Lasry was initially talking about a deal with Mat Ishbia before Ishbia decided to buy the Suns instead. Lasry then pivoted to talks with Haslem about a potential deal.
