This week’s Portfolio Players features Marc Lasry who has navigated sports ownership at the highest levels—serving as the former owner of the Milwaukee Bucks and co-founding Avenue Capital.
In Episode 7 of Portfolio Players, presented by E*TRADE from Morgan Stanley, Lasry discusses the complexities behind team ownership transitions—especially during a period marked by rising franchise valuations and uncertainty around Giannis Antetokounmpo’s long-term future with the team. He also explores the rise of women’s sports as a cultural movement, fueled by generational change and increased family engagement.
