The sale of the Boston Celtics has been finalized. Private equity mogul Bill Chisholm has taken control of the NBA’s most-decorated franchise from a group led by Wyc Grousbeck that had owned them for more than two decades.

The Boston Celtics announced the team's sale as the ownership transfers from long-time owner Wyc Grousbeck to Bill Chisholm. The Celtics sale is valued at $6.1

The Celtics put out a press release on Tuesday confirming the ownership change and the closing of the sale while sharing more details on the new hierarchy at the top of the organization.

NBA rumors reveal the Boston Celtics' $6.1 billion sale to William Chisholm is likely to close late next week or early the following week.
