Patrick and Brittany Mahomes are involved with an ownership group interested in bringing a WNBA team to the KC area.
Mahomes spoke on Thursday about why he wants to see a WNBA expansion team in the area, citing how the success of the Kansas City Current women's soccer team proved how the city will support a potential women's basketball team.
"It was cool that we were able to get this soccer team, this women's soccer team here in the Current and they're going into the playoffs now and you see the support that they have. So let's try to get a WNBA team in here as well that same ownership group. They've done the Current the right way, and I want to continue to work with them to take that next step and get a WNBA team here.
"Whenever I'm done playing football—whenever that is—and I have to venture off into life after football and chasing kids around and everything like that, I want to be able to still be a part of it," Mahomes said. "And then, at the same time, showcase to my daughter that she can follow her dream and go out there and execute on whatever that dream is."
