NEW YORK (AP) — Former Sacramento mayor and NBA star Kevin Johnson is joining
the sports agency Independent Sports and Entertainment. Power agent Dan Fegan
has been ousted as part of the shake-up.
ISE said Friday that Johnson will serve as vice chairman, addressing the
company’s “corporate vision and strategy” and helping clients in contract
negotiations and career development.
Fegan was fired as president of ISE Basketball. Over the years, Fegan has
represented such prominent NBA players as Dwight Howard, DeMarcus Cousins,
DeAndre Jordan and Chandler Parsons.
He is being replaced on an interim basis by ISE chief marketing officer Chris
Grancio. ISE says the company remains firmly committed to basketball.
