Golden State Warriors owner Joe Lacob says he\'d be interested in buying the Oakland Athletics if current owner John Fisher was looking to sell.
\"We\'ve over the years been obviously very interested,\" Lacob said. \"You all know that I\'ve said it, and if for whatever reason [Fisher] decided it wasn\'t going to work, sure, we might be interested.\"
Lacob recently purchased the new Bay Area WNBA franchise.
The A\'s have long been rumored to be moving to Las Vegas, but the move isn\'t official yet.
\"You have to have someone who wants to sell something to be interested in buying it,\" Lacob added. He noted he wasn\'t \"throwing my hat in the ring,\" but just pointing out that he\'s been a fan of the team for many years.
