When it comes to the best franchises in all of sports around the world, it tends to start with the Los Angeles Lakers. They are among the teams that continually find themselves in championship contention and usually have an excellent owner leading the way.
Of course for the Lakers that is none other than Jeanie Buss. Her father, the late, great Dr. Jerry Buss, is considered by many to be the greatest owner in the history of sports, so following in his footsteps was anything but easy.
But Jeanie weathered tough times to help return the Lakers back to the glory they experienced under her father and she remains one of the most well-respected owners in the NBA today.
