Jay-Z could be set to sell his small share in the Brooklyn Nets as he aims to focus on his new sports management company Roc Nation Sports. The company announced it had signed four time Silver Slugger Award winner Robinson Cano as its first client last week with Jay-Z in the process of obtaining his National Basketball Players Association certificate as a fully fledged agent. But the move into sports management would require him to sell his small share in the NBA side and the $1billion Barclays Center. The rapper, real name Shawn Carter, reportedly owns just one fifteenth of one per cent of the team. But he was a key figure in the Nets’ move from New Jersey to Brooklyn and he modelled the team’s new uniform for the first time in a concert last autumn. Cano, a player on the Yankees’ 2009 World Championship series team and two-time Gold Glove Award winner, announced he had fired his agent Scott Boras and signed with Jay-Z’s company last Tuesday.
