Fear not Portland Trail Blazers fanatics, your favorite team appears to be in good hands. After a long battle with Non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma, co-founder of Microsoft and Blazers superfan Paul Allen departed in October, 2018.
This loss left many unsure of the fate of the Portland Trail Blazers, now in the hands of Paul’s sister Jody Allen. Over $20 billion in assets were handed down to Jody, including ownership of Portland’s basketball team. Many assumed the team would be put up for sale and into the hands of a mogul that could potentially desire to move the team.
