ARLINGTON, Texas — Before their game Sunday against the Sky, the Wings announced a historic partnership with the NBA’s Mavericks. The multiyear partnership — which comes with a seven-figure investment from the Mavs, according to league sources — is the first between a WNBA team and an NBA team operating under different ownership.
Like the Wings, the Sky are one of the seven franchises in the WNBA that are independently owned. Unlike the Wings, the Sky have no partnership with the NBA team in town.
