Houston Comets Set to Return to the WNBA in 2027 After $300M Sale
The Houston Comets are set to return to the WNBA in 2027 after the Connecticut Sun were sold to Rockets owner Tilman Fertitta for $300 million. This move revives a historic franchise that won the first four WNBA championships and holds a significant place in league history.
The sale has been met with some controversy, as a higher bid from another group was rejected by the WNBA, but the league has prioritized bringing a team back to Houston.
