Joe Lacob, Peter Guber and the rest of their ownership group bought the Warriors in 2010 for $450 million.
In February, Forbes valued the franchise at $4.3 billion -- up $800 million from the year before.
So where does that valuation rank among all sports franchises in the world?
The answer to that question is ...
... No. 5.
According to Forbes, only the Dallas Cowboys ($5.5 billion), New York Yankees ($5 billion), New York Knicks ($4.6 billion) and Los Angeles Lakers ($4.4) are worth more.
“Forbes is more of a general indicator," Lacob told Bill Shea of The Athletic in March.
