(0:52)Open Extended ReactionsConnecticut Sun president Jennifer Rizzotti said Tuesday that the team's ownership group is "exploring all options to strategically invest in the team," including a potential sale. Mohegan was the first non-NBA owner of a WNBA team, and the franchise became the first in the league to turn a profit. In a statement provided to ESPN, Mohegan leadership said: "As an organization, Mohegan is consistently evaluating strategic options, investments and capital expenditures. Other possibilities include a franchise sale where the team remains in the same city or state, similar to what happened with the Atlanta Dream in 2021. "If the tribe decides they want to own this team, they're as competitive, I think, as any ownership group in the league."
