Phoenix Suns Owner Mat Ishbia Makes a Last-Minute Deal with Oaktree to Save His Ownership Stake In a dramatic turn of events, billionaire finance executive and Phoenix Suns owner Mat Ishbia has reportedly struck a deal with Oaktree Capital Management, a leading global investment firm, to save his ownership stake in the NBA team. The news comes as a surprise, as Ishbia's ownership of the Suns was previously called into question due to his mounting debt and a potential default on a loan from Oaktree. The exact terms of the deal remain unclear, but sources suggest that Ishbia has managed to negotiate a more favorable agreement with Oaktree, potentially averting a sale of the team. The future of the Suns, and Ishbia's role as owner, hangs in the balance as the NBA season approaches.
