Alex Rodriguez Opens Up About Ownership Plans for Minnesota Lynx

“Cheryl’s done an incredible job,” Rodriguez said. “I mean, she’s really built a dynasty there. So our job is to give her budgets and let her run as fast as she can.”

Getting more fans interested in Lynx, Timberwolves at same time might deserve focus from Rodriguez, Lore

One area of focus that Rodriguez and Lore might look at is improving overlap attention between Timberwolves and Lynx fans. According to The Athletic story, there's only a nine percent overlap in following how both teams are performing on the court.

“With the W, it’s been running full speed ahead,” Rodriguez said. “So our job is to really kind of just get out of the way. Then the business is gonna have a lot more of our hands.

"We’re gonna roll up our sleeves, hire a CEO, bring in a person that Marc and I feel has the same capability as (Timberwolves president of basketball operations) Tim (Connelly), so we can copy and paste what we’ve done in basketball and do it in business, and then we should be off to the races.”

It's been a banner season for the Lynx, who are 19-4 at this time. Reeve keeps pushing the right buttons for her team and Napheesa Collier is in position to pick up a WNBA MVP award at season's end. When looking at the WNBA franchise at this point, it's hard to find too many weaknesses on the team.

“We’re very excited about this year right now, where we have an opportunity to win a title,” Rodriguez said. “Napheesa Collier is a front-runner to be MVP, and we have a fan base that’s been embedded there for years and years with four titles. Cheryl has been there for about 16 years, and she’s one of one. She’s a Hall of Famer. She’s a proven winner.”

Rodriguez and Lore don't expect to be sitting on their hands with the Lynx. They'll look to make sure, as owners, that the team has what it needs to compete now and into the future.
