Oracle CEO Larry Ellison remains at "the top of the list" of suitors for the Warriors, league sources told Yahoo! Sports.

It was announced on Monday that Golden State is officially for sale.

"He's at the top of the list," one league source said of Ellison. "Everyone else is two, three, four and five. If he wants to buy it, he's going to buy it."

Magic Johnson also could have some interest in becoming involved in an ownership group, a source said, provided he sells his minority stake in the Lakers.

George Postolos, who had hoped to buy the Bobcats, also could surface as a potential buyer.
