Posted Sep 15, 2019
Michael Jordan has agreed to sell a large piece of the Charlotte Hornets to two New York-based investors, a sale expected to close in the next few weeks. A source familiar with the deal said it does not involve the former NBA MVP giving up majority ownership of the NBA franchise.
