Former NBA superstar Magic Johnson attended the Dolphins' home game against the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday and reiterated that he is very interested in being part of any ownership group that would bring an NFL team back to Los Angeles.

Johnson said he was at Sunday's game at the behest of Dolphins owner Steve Ross. Johnson said he hasn't had any talks with Ross about becoming a minority owner of the Dolphins, but he praised the organization at length and said he would "definitely" be excited about discussing that possibility.
Ross has brought in celebrities such as Marc Anthony, Gloria Estefan, Serena Williams and Venus Williams as minority owners of the Dolphins.
Johnson's interest in the NFL came to light earlier this week, when he told the Los Angeles Times he would be interested in bringing an NFL team back to Los Angeles. Johnson said then that he hadn't had any talks with the NFL, which hasn't had a team in Los Angeles since the Rams and Raiders left the city after the 1994 season.
