WNBA's Atlanta Dream Sold to Investor Group Including Renee Montgomery

The WNBA has approved the sale of the Atlanta Dream to a three-member ownership group that includes two-time WNBA champion Renee Montgomery.

Larry Gottesdiener, chairman of Northland, a national real estate firm, and Northland president and COO Suzanne Abair are the other members of the group.

The team was previously co-owned by Mary Brock and former U.S. Senator Kelly Loeffler.

"My Dream has come true," Montgomery said in a statement. "Breaking barriers for minorities and women by being the first former WNBA player to have both a stake in ownership and a leadership role with the team is an opportunity that I take very seriously.
