ALABAMA - Early 2024 could prove to be a historic moment for Latinos in sports in the United States, as Alex Rodriguez could become the first member of this demographic to own a majority of an NBA franchise.
Concretely, A-Rod and his business partner, Marc Lore, are closing in on a deal to buy 40% of the NBA's Minnesota Timberwolves along with the WNBA's Lynx. According to reports from ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski, they plan to exercise the option to purchase a further 40% of the team, adding to the 40% they initially bought in April 2021.
