The Boston Celtics majority ownership stake will go to the highest bidder at some point this year.

It's a once-in-a-lifetime chance to grab a MASSive piece of American sports history.

"We set odds for who that lucky billionaire will be. There are more than two dozen names on the list, from the favorites to the longshots," BetOnline advised.

Billionaire Larry Ellison is the favorite to become the next owner of the Celtics at 2/1 odds.  He was a finalist to buy the Golden State Warriors before they were sold to a group headed by Joe Lacob and Peter Guber back in 2010. Forbes estimates Ellison’s net worth to be $158 billion.

Steve Pagliuca comes in with the second shortest odds at 3/1.  Pagliuca confirmed on Tuesday that he will be part of the bidding process for the Celtics.

“I am grateful and thankful for the 21-year partnership I have enjoyed with Wyc and Irv Grousbeck, the Epstein family, and all the incredible Celtics investment partners,” Pagliuca said.  “It has been a remarkable run that resulted in two NBA Championships for the best and most passionate fans in professional basketball, capped off with an amazing duck boat parade last week in Boston.

“Along with the championships, we are most proud of the growth of our community impact efforts and the dedication of the investor group, coaches, players, and staff to helping community members who are in need.

“Being a co-investor and Managing Partner of the Celtics has been a great honor and a labor of love. I hope to be part of the Celtics moving forward and will be a proud participant in the bidding process that has been announced today.”

Celtics ownership odds are subject to change and will be updated in real-time.

Sixers? Knicks? Who Can Challenge Boston in the East this Season?

As the new NBA season gets underway, there is most certainly a sense that the Boston Celtics are the team to beat once again. The 18-time champions really took an “if it’s not broken, don’t try to fix it” policy in the offseason, and it’s hard to argue with the tactic.
