Knicks News: James Dolan stands out in Hornets ownership vote, two-way situation

New York Knicks James Dolan was in the news on Sunday and the reason why wasn’t surprising in the least. The league’s board of governors voted 29-1 to approve the sale of the Hornets. Guess who was the lone opposing vote?

Rick Schnall and Gabe Plotkin lead the group that bought the organization, and Bleacher Report’s Julia Stumbaugh speculated that Dolan dissented because of Schnall’s financial history. That ultimately didn’t matter because the sale was completed, and according to ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski, it will be made official in the next week or two.

ESPN Sources: The BOG vote was 29-1 to approve the sale.
