A Boston-based group led by Celtics minority governor Steve Pagliuca has reached a deal with the Mohegan Tribe to purchase the WNBA's Connecticut Sun and move the team to Boston, according to multiple reports Saturday.

On July 11, Gov. Dan McKee reportedly met with investors to discuss the possibility of bringing the team to Providence.

The Sun would play its home games at TD Garden, where they played two games over the last two years and sold out the arena on both occasions. According to Washburn, the Celtics have "no issue" with the Sun becoming co-tenants at TD Garden,
