Patrick Mahomes, quarterback of the Kansas City Chiefs, has publicly supported efforts to bring a WNBA franchise to Kansas City. Mahomes, who is involved with the Kansas City Current (a National Women's Soccer League team), views the addition of a WNBA team as a strong opportunity for the city. He believes that Kansas City has the necessary infrastructure, like the T-Mobile Center, to support professional basketball. The WNBA is currently expanding, with new teams being added over the next two years, and Mahomes is optimistic that Kansas City could emerge as a viable candidate for a future franchise despite competition from other cities.
