Jeff Bezos Emerges as Leading Contender to Buy Boston Celtics

The Amazon founder's deep pockets and vision for a new arena make him a favored candidate over Fenway Sports Group and LeBron James.

Current Celtics ownership plans to sell the team in two parts, with full transfer expected by 2028.
Bezos's financial capability to handle luxury taxes and player salaries is a significant advantage.
The NBA aims for a $6 billion sale to facilitate future expansion teams.
Fenway Sports Group, with LeBron James as a stakeholder, is also in the running.
Bill Simmons and other sources confirm Bezos's serious interest in the purchase.
