As Long as He Doesn't Rename Them the Golden State Samurai
Oracle CEO Larry Ellison–already a swashbuckling billionaire tech mogul, America’s Cup winner and movie star–is reportedly on the verge of his most challenging takeover yet: The purchase of the woeful Golden State Warriors NBA franchise. Various sources report a deal is imminent, with Ellison to get 80 percent of the team for a price somewhere north of $315 million. Can’t quite imagine the dapper Ellison courtside in a T-shirt a la Mark Cuban, though.
