Walmart heir Lukas Walton has bought a minority stake in the Chicago Bulls and the United Center.
The United Center is the arena that hosts the Bulls and the Blackhawks.
The purchase makes Walton a part of the franchise’s ownership circle.
Walton and his sister Samantha Walton are named as the new minority investors.
The Bulls disclosed the agreement on Friday.
The investment offers the Walton family a foothold in a major sports franchise and its arena.
It trails a sequence of Walmart‑affiliated deals announced this week.
