Matt Kemp learned that Magic Johnson was his new owner on Tuesday night as he sat courtside at the Suns-Spurs game. "My phone started blowing up," Kemp said. "I started looking at the texts, and everyone was saying Magic was our owner. I thought people were just messing with me. I didn't know it was real until I started getting text messages from some important people." The new ownership group, headed by Johnson, is largely funded by Guggenheim Capital chief executive officer Mark Walter. They agreed to purchase the Dodgers, Dodger Stadium and a 50 percent stake in the parking lots surrounding the ballpark from Frank McCourt for $2.15 billion. "I think it's tight, man, for Magic to be one of our owners," Kemp said. "He knows what the Dodgers mean to L.A. Magic is very important to L.A., and the fans love him. This is a pretty good day for the Dodgers."
