It just wouldn’t be the Los Angeles Lakers without a little bit (or a lot) of drama. Recently, word broke that Jim and Johnny Buss were attempting to remove their sister Jeanie as the team’s president. The motivation seemed clear, as Jeanie had just fired Jim (along with Mitch Kupchak and John Black) from his role atop the team’s basketball operations department.
Ramona Shelburne shed light on the situation in a shocking piece:
