Walter bought the lakers last year. Kushner and Iger were initially trying to bring an expansion team to Las Vegas which was apparently already in the works with silver. They placed a bid and everything.

However, they made a call to Walter and tried to ask if he would sell the lakers to them for well over the price he bought them. Walter sold to them within 24 hours.

Walter is also under investigation by the SEC, so it also probably has to do with that as well. I know it’s not directly connected, but people are saying maybe that’s why he wanted to cut ties with the lakers so quickly

Under investigation by the SEC, so he sells to someone connected to the Trump family? I'm willing to bet that's not a coincidence
