Magic Johnson’s love for the Lakers has kept him from considering ownership of any other NBA team, except for maybe the Knicks.
as teams he turned down, rather than find himself in competition with the Lakers. The Knicks, though, offer something different.
"I think because of the way fans love basketball you might have to think about that one, because I love coming to New York and going to the Garden and watching the Knicks play," Johnson said in an interview with The Associated Press."I love being with fans who are so passionate about their team and the Knick fans are, and they're smart. They're smart basketball fans and so that one I would have to think about.
Johnson said he hasn't spoken with Madison Square Garden Executive Chairman James Dolan about the idea and isn't looking for an opportunity, content to watch the Lakers as a fan after serving as their president of basketball operations for two seasons before resigning in 2019."That one you would really have to think about, in terms of being a minority owner of that team," he said.
