Bill Chisholm's Group Completes Its Record $6.1 Billion Celtics Purchase

Private equity investor Bill Chisholm took control of the 18-time NBA champions from Wyc Grousbeck's group, which bought the team in 2002 for $360 million. The deal valued the Celtics at more than $6.1 billion, a record for an American pro sports team, with full control due by 2028.

The sale was finalized on Tuesday 19 August 2025, when Bill Chisholm took control from the group led by Wyc Grousbeck that had owned the Celtics for more than two decades^[1]
Chisholm's March offer valued the franchise at more than $6.1 billion, a record price for an American professional sports team; he takes at least 51% now, with full control by 2028 at a price that could bring the total value to $7.3 billion^[1]
The NBA Board of Governors had unanimously approved the sale of the controlling interest on 13 August 2025, saying it was "expected to close shortly"^[4]
Chisholm serves as governor, with Grousbeck and Aditya Mittal as alternate governors; Grousbeck stays as co-owner and CEO running day-to-day operations^[1]
Grousbeck's group bought the team in 2002 for $360 million and won two NBA titles, making the playoffs in 20 of 23 seasons^[1]
The $6.1 billion valuation edged the Washington Commanders' $6.05 billion sale of 2023, the previous most expensive control sale in team sports^[2]
Mittal, CEO of ArcelorMittal, is contributing $1 billion; the closing revealed four new investors, among them Klaviyo co-founder Andrew Bialecki and Mario Ho, while minority owner Steve Pagliuca leaves in 2028^[3]
