Magic Johnson has never been a decision-making NBA executive, but he has been a successful businessman and investor since his playing career ended.
LOS ANGELES — The Los Angeles Lakers fired general manager Mitch Kupchak on Tuesday and put Magic Johnson in charge of basketball operations in a major shake-up of the struggling franchise's front office.
Lakers owner Jeanie Buss also removed her brother, Jim, from his job as the Lakers' executive vice president of basketball operations.
