Houston Rockets owner Tilman Fertitta is in advanced talks to buy the WNBA’s Connecticut Sun and relocate the team to Houston, potentially reviving professional women’s basketball in the city after the Comets’ 2008 dissolution.
The Mohegan Tribe, which owns the Sun since 2003, has hired investment firm Allen & Co. to explore a sale, with a reported bid of $250 million or more.
The move aligns with the WNBA’s expansion plans, which include new teams in Portland, Toronto, Cleveland, Detroit, and Philadelphia by 2030.
Houston is considered a top priority for the league, though no formal agreement has been reached.
The Sun will play the 2026 season at Mohegan Sun Arena in Connecticut.
A final decision may hinge on the league’s upcoming collective bargaining agreement, with a January 8 deadline.
