The Washington Post is reporting that Sixers owner Josh Harris and Houston Rockets owner Tilman Fertitta are involved in the bidding for the Washington Commanders.
Fertitta joins a group of prospective buyers that includes Harris and Amazon founder Jeff Bezos.
Harris has visited the Commanders’ facility, according to the Post reporting.
Harris was co-founder of Apollo Global Management and is a general partner of the English Premier League’s Crystal Palace. He is a limited partner in the NFL’s Pittsburgh Steelers. Harris grew up in Chevy Chase and attended the Field School in Northwest Washington.
Harris, who has an estimated net worth of $6.2 billion, according to Forbes, attempted to purchase the Denver Broncos last year but lost the bidding to a group led by Walmart heir Rob Walton.
