Contents
The NBA is a league of big money. So which team is the richest of them all?
The Los Angeles Lakers
The Los Angeles Lakers are the team with the most money in the NBA. They are worth an estimated $4 billion, according to Forbes. The team’s value has increased by nearly $1 billion since last year, thanks to their new television deal with Time Warner Cable.
The New York Knicks
The New York Knicks have the most money in the NBA. The team is worth an estimated $4 billion, according to Forbes. The Knicks are followed by the Los Angeles Lakers ($3.7 billion) and the Golden State Warriors ($3.5 billion).
The Golden State Warriors
The Golden State Warriors are an American professional basketball team based in Oakland, California. The Warriors compete in the National Basketball Association (NBA) as a member of the league’s Western Conference Pacific Division. The Warriors have reached nine NBA Finals, winning five NBA championships in 1947, 1956, 1975, 2015, and 2017.
The Chicago Bulls
It is no secret that the Chicago Bulls have been one of the most successful franchises in NBA history. They have had some of the best players to ever play the game and have won six championships. Even though they have not won a championship since 1998, they are still one of the most popular teams in the league.
One of the reasons that the Bulls are so popular is because they have always been one of the most financially stable teams in the NBA. They are worth an estimated $2.6 billion, which is good for fifth in the NBA. That is largely due to their huge local fanbase and their strong corporate partnerships. Their arena, the United Center, is also one of the busiest venues in all of sports.
While they may not be at the top of the standings right now, it is clear that the Chicago Bulls are still one of the most valuable franchises in all of basketball.
The Houston Rockets
According to Forbes, the Houston Rockets are the most valuable NBA franchise, worth an estimated $2.2 billion. The franchise was founded in 1967 and is currently owned by Tilman Fertitta. The Rockets have won two NBA championships (in 1994 and 1995) and have appeared in the playoffs 29 times in their history.
