New York Knicks and Rangers owner James Dolan has tested positive for COVID-19 … making him the first known major American sports team owner to contract the virus.
Knicks PR announced Saturday night that the 64-year-old billionaire owner had Coronavirus … but made it clear he was in good health, and still in-charge of his teams.
“The Madison Square Garden Company Executive Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Jim Dolan has tested positive for coronavirus. He has been in self-isolation and is experiencing little to no symptoms. He continues to oversee business operations.”
Dolan lives in New York — the U.S. hotbed for the pandemic — with over 53,000 identified cases.
Earlier this month, before the NBA shut down … Dolan was reportedly the only NBA owner who didn’t want to go on hiatus, or suspend the season — despite the growing coronavirus threat.
In addition to the Knicks and Rangers, Dolan — who has had a tumultuous relationship with many NYK fans over the years — also owns Madison Square Garden and several other venues across the country.
