Rockets Owners in Talks to Buy and Move WNBA's Sun
Publicly, the sale of the Connecticut Sun appeared to have stalled after a whirlwind summer with multiple parties making offers in excess of $300 million to buy the WNBA team.
Underneath the surface, talks were continuing with one of the interested parties.....
ESPN was first to report the state of discussions.
“Mohegan leadership continues to actively explore different avenues of investment opportunities for the CT Sun,” Mohegan leadership said in a statement to FOS. “We are excited with the growth of the WNBA and women’s basketball, and are taking a rigorous, diligent approach to this work. We fully understand and appreciate the value of the phenomenal women’s basketball we have had the privilege to support and lead for 23 remarkable seasons. No agreement has been reached at this time, and we are not at liberty to discuss the details of any potential concepts under consideration.”
