[Saba Sports News] On the Pat McAfee show, NBA insider Shams Charania shared insights into the escalating conflict among Minnesota Timberwolves stakeholders Marc Lore, Alex Rodriguez, and Glen Taylor. Shams predicts a bitter and prolonged dispute, describing the situation as a “billionaire war” poised to become increasingly hostile over time.
Shams highlighted the positive impact Lore and Rodriguez have had on the Timberwolves, bringing a new energy and optimism to the team. However, Taylor, the team’s owner since 1994 known for his controversial tenure, is now challenging their influence by abruptly halting sale negotiations and declaring the team no longer for sale. This move by Taylor, seen as particularly cold-hearted, comes after years of Lore and Rodriguez’s efforts to revitalize the team’s culture and performance.
Despite Taylor’s attempt to retain full control, Lore, who already owns a part of the Timberwolves, is not backing down. Determined to take full ownership, Lore is prepared to fight for the team, indicating a tough legal and financial battle ahead for all parties involved.
