The National Basketball League has been playing games in Australia and New Zealand for almost 40 years and the New Zealand Breakers, winners of four recent championships, had an ownership change announced in February. The change included new majority shareholders, with Matt Walsh, Romie Chaudhari, Dan Katz, former NBA player Shawn Marion and Adam Goodman listed as a consortium.
But it was this blurb from the release that caught our eye:
Since retiring in 2015, Walsh has turned his hand to business with a focus on sports club ownership, holding interests in Swansea City in the EPL and second division team Loudoun United.
