Magic Johnson, Josh Harris and other new Commanders owners introduce themselves to Washington fans
Associated PressWASHINGTON — Magic Johnson handed Kanga Gwanyama $5,000 in cash, telling the 13-year-old he could only hold on to the money for five minutes and that most of it would go into savings. “We’ve been incredibly overwhelmed by the welcome we have gotten,” Harris said Friday, noting he now carries around throat lozenges because of how many conversations he’s having. Harris left the first practice of training camp exclaiming, “We’re undefeated!” And as Rales said Wednesday night at a dinner event for the Economic Club of Washington, D.C.: “We’re all Super Bowl champions at training camp. “What we’re trying to do is welcome people into a changed house.” Johnson said Harris has already invested millions of dollars in improvements for fans and players, alike. “Once we get through all this, we want to start to keep the focus on the team and winning football games, and we don’t want to be a distraction,” Harris said.
