MIAMI (AP) — Magic Johnson says he would be interested in becoming the Miami Dolphins’ latest celebrity limited partner, although his priority is to help Los Angeles get an NFL team.

Johnson attended Miami’s game Sunday against the Pittsburgh Steelers as a guest of Dolphins owner Stephen Ross. Johnson said they met to discuss business, but he offered no details about the conversation.

Since taking over the Dolphins before last season, Ross has brought aboard as limited partners the Williams sisters, Gloria and Emilio Estefan, Fergie and Marc Anthony. As part of Ross’ attempt to boost attendance, the Dolphins now have a VIP entrance and South Beach-style club at games.

Johnson recently sold his small ownership stake in the Los Angeles Lakers.
