Eminem is part of a group trying to bring a WNBA expansion team to Detroit, Sportico reports, citing an unnamed source familiar with the process.
The online sports business publication said the effort is being spearheaded by Pistons owner Tom Gores, and that the Ilitch Group and the owners of the Detroit Lions are also involved, "marking a city-wide effort to bring a women’s basketball team back to Michigan’s largest city."
The group also includes former NBA players Grant Hill and Chris Webber, Lions quarterback Jared Goff, and General Motors CEO Mary Barra, the publication reports.
