Locked On Raptors

In Episode 1487, Sean Woodley is joined by Chelsea Leite (Raptors HQ) to react to the news that Toronto will not be getting a WNBA expansion team any time soon as the Toronto Raptors ownership conglomerate MLSE reportedly has balked at the $50 million expansion fee to bring the league north of the border, per Doug Smith of the Toronto Star. Sean and Chelsea chat about how disappointing this news is for a city that is absolutely ready to support a WNBA franchise, and has an ownership group with more than enough resources to invest in the league, even if it might take some time to see the return on that investment. Is something rotten at MLSE? How could it bleed into their stewardship of the Raptors? And what does MLSE's dismissiveness of women's sports mean in the big picture? Plus, a round of What's More Likely with a WNBA lean, as well as some talk about the most likely outcomes for the Pascal Siakam contract situation.Come join our Discord server to be part of ourd growing community of Locked On Raptors lis
