Houston Rockets: Leslie Alexander was committed to winning
The Houston Rockets are up for sale after 24 years being under the reign of Leslie Alexander. It’s not often in the sports world that an owner is beloved by the public and one that works as much for the franchise as for making a profit for themselves. But Leslie Alexander was a special type of owner.
The Houston Rockets are valued at $1.65 billion dollars, good for eighth most valuable NBA franchise, according to Forbes. Alexander paid $85 million dollars for the team back in 1993 so the value has obviously inflated since that time.
