Seattle is all dressed to the nines to host this year’s All-Star festivities in a few days. It looks like the Twin Cities are looking at the Emerald City with curious eyes.
Per a report out the Minneapolis Star Tribune, Glen Taylor who owns the Lynx and the NBA’s Timberwolves, has submitted a bid to the WNBA for the 2018 All-Star Game to held at a renovated and refurbished Target Center.
Taylor described it as the “right time” to put the Twin Cities on center stage.
This is a team that is winning with the great players we have. We have a new practice facility and the Target Center. Just everything. There is a lot to show off.
–Glen Taylor
How perfect would that be? The Target Center would be finished, all ready to go. That would work pretty well, don’t you think?
–Lindsay Whalen
A decision from the league could come between this year’s All-Star break and the fall on where the 2018 All-Star Game would be held.
