Alex Rodriguez and Marc Lore became official co-owners of the Timberwolves in 2021, signing a $1.5 billion agreement. Although they joined the franchise with a 20% stake, they can thus become majority shareholders by 2023.
In such a case, they would take over the primary ownership of Glen Taylor. Nonetheless, the $350 million man Rodriguez has already become a leading member of the Timberwolves family.?
The Timberwolves faced the Portland Trail Blazers on Monday. The two teams clashed at the Moda Center.
So, Rodriguez posted a reel promoting the game on his Instagram account, prior to the proceedings. Putting up the post, Rodriguez wrote, “Monday, Let’s Go!” with a classic tune by The Alan Parsons Project.?
