Mohegan Tribe is looking to sell a stake in the team to raise money to invest, notably in a practice facility.

The Sun played a game at TD Garden Arena in Boston and sold it out last season .

The WNBA and the sport owes a debt of gratitude to the tribe for buying and rescuing the Orlando franchise in 2003 .

The Connecticut Sun is leaving the NBA and WNBA .

The Sun franchise has been in southeastern Connecticut for 20 years .

It is sad and it's bittersweet, but maybe it’s time and we’ll have to face it, graduation day.

Maybe a high-roller in the state could try to buy the team and play in a renovated XL Center .
