It’ll be a great day to see the Atlanta Dream sold after co-owner Kelly Loeffler will no longer be associated with the franchise.
A WNBA spokesperson announced to ESPN the team is on the edge of being sold.
“The franchise has been at the center of turmoil since Loeffler wrote a letter to WNBA commissioner Cathy Engelbert objecting to the league’s embrace of the Black Lives Matter movement during the 2020 season. Players around the league initially called on Loeffler to sell her share of the team (49%) but when she refused, they instead publicly endorsed her opponent in her senatorial race, the Rev. Raphael Warnock,” per ESPN.
Loeffler doesn’t deserve that position since she doesn’t care about Black people’s injustices.
Here is the sad part. The Dream has been operating at a loss for a couple of years, so Loeffler will likely make a profit on the sale. The same thing happened with Donald Sterling.
He indeed lost the Clippers but they sold for over $2 billion, so he didn’t walk away empty-handed.
