Nelly is owner of a team now?

Quote:
Nelly's just as excited about the fact he's a new owner of the Charlotte Bobcats, an NBA expansion team (Robert L. Johnson remains the majority owner). "You gotta make moves," Nelly says of his decision. "It's been my dream to own a pro ball team. I'm partners with Bob Johnson. He's still the big dog. But he's teaching me, letting me learn everything I possibly can about the business. I'm just happy the NBA is accepting me with open arms and willing to let me in."
I have no idea when this happened, nut apparently it was July 18th.

Dirk Nowitzki: “He is playing phenomenal and he comes to play every night. He is going to be a dominant player is this league.”

``Of the many dreams that I have fulfilled in life, being an NBA owner is certainly one of the biggest achievements,'' Nelly said in a release issued by the Bobcats. ``To be able to make this move with Bob Johnson and to be a part of the first-ever minority owned professional sports franchise in history is a great opportunity.

``Bob and I share the same commitment to diversity and we are both self-made, having worked up from the very bottom to reach where we are today.''
