Jennifer Rizzotti, president of the Connecticut team said to ESPN that a deal was reached to relocate the Sun to Boston for the 2027 WNBA season, but that the sale by the current owners, the Mohegan Tribe, and the move still needs to be approved by the league's WNBA Board of Governors.

Celtics minority owner Steve Pagliuca is buying the Sun for $325 million, putting another $100 million towards a team facility in Boston.

Steve Pagliuca is set to leave the Boston Celtics ownership group. But he’s reportedly set to bring another professional basketball team to Boston. According to the Boston Globe, an ownership group led by Pagliuca has reached a deal with the Mohegan Tribe to purchase the WNBA’s Mohegan Sun and move the team to TD Garden.
