Amid reports that the WNBA does not support Hartford’s bid for the Connecticut Sun, the group remains committed to keeping the team in state.

Is longtime Celtics partner Steve Pagliuca going to purchase the Connecticut Sun and move the team to Boston? Here’s what we know.

A record deal to an ownership group would seemingly be a coup for the WNBA — the last WNBA team to have a standalone majority sale was the Atlanta Dream in 2021 for less than $10 million — but the Sun relocating under Pagliuca’s watch appears to be facing some resistance.
