Filed under: Hornets, NBA Rumors
The NBA announced its intention to buy the New Orleans Hornets on Monday, an unprecedented move that brings with it a litany of questions about the organization and its franchise player, Chris Paul.
The transaction that comes after the failed sale from current owner George Shinn to minority Hornets owner Gary Chouest is subject to a vote by the league's Board of Governor's next week, and Shinn said in a statement from the league that the intention here is to keep the team down by the Bayou.
"I suggested to the Commissioner (David Stern) that the league consider the purchase of the Hornets," Shinn said. "I wanted to ensure that the team remained in New Orleans, if that was possible, and recognized that the league could provide the necessary funding while a new owner was sought in New Orleans and negotiations with the city and the state could continue."
