After 30 unforgettable years, our time as owners of the Minnesota Timberwolves and Lynx has come to a close. This marks the end of an extraordinary chapter in our lives – one filled with purpose, pride, and a deep connection.
When we kept the Timberwolves from moving to New Orleans in 1994, we did so with the hope of building something that could unite people across Minnesota and beyond. And when we added the Lynx in 1998, it was driven by our belief in supporting women and fully embracing the diversity and promise of the WNBA.
**THANK YOU** to my limited partners for going on this journey together – Meyer Orbach, Bill and Teri Popp, Bill and Joyce Sexton, Wynn and Ginnette Kearney, John and Kathie Bollero, and Debbie Saunders.
**THANK YOU** to the players who wore the jerseys with heart and determination.
**THANK YOU** to the staff who worked tirelessly behind the scenes.
**THANK YOU** to the corporate and community partners who supported us through the years.
And most of all, **THANK YOU** to the fans – your passion has been the soul of this organization. You welcomed us into your homes, your lives, and your hearts. The roar of Target Center, the sea of jerseys in the stands, the shared highs and lows, and the belief in what we could accomplish together – it’s all been nothing short of remarkable.
Though we are stepping away as owners, our love for this organization and this community remains as strong as ever. We will always be fans, cheering from our seats, celebrating your triumphs, and believing in what comes next.
It has been the honor of our lives.
