Mat Ishbia Hints At Suns New G League Team

During an interview with Burns & Gambo on Arizona Sports 98.7, Phoenix Suns owner Mat Ishbia was asked about the possibility of adding a G League team and his response was promising for Phoenix fans.

Ishbia teased a major announcement when Gambo asked Ishbia about the Suns being the only franchise not to have a G League team.

“That won’t be something you’ll be talking about in a week or two, how about that?” Ishbia replied to the question.

Ishbia later added, “We’re gonna continue to invest in our team. We’re gonna invest in our future. And a G League team is important.”

The reason why Phoenix does not have a G League team is due to former owner Robert Sarver selling the Northern Arizona Suns. Sarver sold the team to the Detroit Pistons, who later relocated to Detroit.
