See What Oprah Believes She Has The Right To Own After the recent scandal, NBA owners are almost sure that Donald Sterling will be forced to sell the Los Angeles Clippers. Should the team go up for sale, there is already a long and growing list of celebrities who have an interest in buying the team, including Oscar De La Hoya, Sean Diddy Combs, and Floyd Mayweather. Also on the list is Oprah Winfrey, who has been discussing her interest in buying the team with Larry Ellison, CEO of Oracle Corporation, and wealthy businessman David Geffen. Her interest doesnt appear to stem from a love of basketball, however. Instead, it appears the Oprah is interested in buying the team because she is black. Oprah is not interested in running the team, Geffen remarked, she thinks it would be a great thing for an important black American to own franchise. The team deserves a better group of owners who want to win. Larry would sooner die than fail. I would sooner die than fail. Larrys a sportsman. Weve talked about this for a long time. Between the three of us, we have a good shot. The team is currently worth about $575 million. What do you think of Oprahs interests?
