Ep 48: What It’s Really Like To Own A Basketball Team With Clara Wu Tsai
Manage episode 419155205 series 3527416
It’s no secret that women’s basketball is exploding in popularity. The WNBA had a record-breaking season last year, which was also its most-watched season in over two decades. Now as some of those college stars (like Caitlin Clark) graduate from college and move on, the WNBA is hoping to build on their momentum.
One of the women we can thank for that momentum is Clara Wu Tsai. She bought the New York Liberty basketball team in 2019 with her husband Joe Tsai, and immediately made profound changes to turn it around. Her goals for this year? To win a championship, and show that women's professional sports can be profitable.
This will be our final episode of Season 1. We’re so thankful you joined us for the first season of “How She Does It,” and we can’t wait to see you again later this year!
