Josh Kushner and Bob Iger purchased the Los Angeles Lakers for a record $12.5 billion, surpassing previous sports franchise sale prices. The deal follows the team's sale from owner Mark Walter, who faced federal investigations into his financial empire and needed to sell quickly.

The sale also highlights the increasing value of legacy sports teams amid rising valuation of NBA franchises.
