One formula, every club the site covers. See the whole board →
The entity that holds control today, one per franchise; co-controllers and minority holders are listed, never summed.
Exactly one control entity is recorded per franchise, so a portfolio can never count a club twice. Co-controllers and minority holders are shown as published and carry no weight in any total.
The chip names the evidence. Sourced: a primary source is linked (league, club, filing or tier-one outlet). Cross-checked: matched against the ownership-change sweep. Contested: disputed or mid-sale. Rows are reviewed weekly.
Stakes are as published, often only “majority”, and are not pro-rated. A record of control is not a claim about anyone’s intent or conduct.
Shared control with: Wyc Grousbeck (CEO, alternate governor)
Minority holders: Sixth Street, Aditya Mittal, Bruce Beal, Rob Hale, Andrew Bialecki
Sale closed 19 Aug 2025 at $6.1B. Chisholm holds roughly 51% now with full ownership arriving by 2028; Grousbeck stays on as CEO. Stephen Pagliuca exited on the sale, so he is no longer an NBA owner.
