They should have stars lining up to play there and they don't, says a lot.



Cant be the worst if they are the most valuable franchise.

I don’t believe a single male owner that won a title under 2 years ago would ever be on this list.

Yup, it is easier to built a title contender in LA than Utah but it isn't that easy that a terrible owner can do it. Just for making sure her brother lost decision making authority she clears the bar of being the worst.

Everyone else faced with far less tenacity.

Same thing that's happening to Caitlin Clark.

Doing the bare minimum is profit as an owner. He purchased the Charlotte Bobcats for $175 million and now they're worth $1.57 billion.

I watched a snap chat video on Jordan's networth. He made around 90 Million from NBA salary. Even more with Jordan brand. Made a wise investment with Charlotte as you mentioned they are now valued over 1 billion.

Michael Jordan has clearly proven to be the worst owner and operator of an NBA franchise ever," Bayless said on his "The Skip Bayless Show. Jackpot lovers find tzoker once at least :)
