Nike co-founder Phil Knight has said to be highly frustrated with his attempts to buy Portland Trial Blazers continuing to be rejected.
Knight has been looking to get in touch with the current owner of the franchise, who has repeatedly knocked him back insisting that the team is not yet for sale - but could be within the coming months.
The Trail Blazers former owner, Paul Allen, sadly passed away in 2018 after a long battle with cancer, but left all of his assets to his sister, Jody Allen - including the NBA side and NFL's Seattle Seahawks. In the summer of 2022, Knight, alongside Los Angeles Dodgers owner Alan Smolinisky made a bid of more than $2billion to take over the NBA team, but was knocked back by the Allen estate.
