Wick Grossbeck, a venture capitalist who leads Boston Basketball Partners LLC, purchased the Boston club for $360 million (about 498.4 billion won) from the Gaston family in 2002 with his family.
Regarding the background of the sale, Grossbeck explained, “The family decided to sell the team for heritage and family planning reasons after agonizing and internal discussions.”
Boston won two championship titles in the 2007-08 season and the 2023-24 season after the owners changed. The total number of wins is 18, the highest among NBA teams.
The team’s value has also significantly increased from 22 years ago. Last year, Forbes estimated the value of the Boston team at 4.7 billion dollars, the second highest after the Golden State Warriors (7.7 billion dollars), the New York Knicks (6.6 billion dollars, 9.1377 trillion won), and the Los Angeles Lakers (6.4 billion dollars, 8.86 trillion won).
