Members of the Virginia General Assembly are considering a plan that could move Monumental Sports & Entertainment’s Washington Wizards and Capitals to Alexandria, Va., according to Teo Armus, Laura Vozzella, Sam Fortier and Gregory S. Schneider of The Washington Post.
If the plan comes through, Monumental Sports would play in a new arena in Potomac Yard and lease from a stadium authority. Potomac Yard recently opened a new Metro station and it is also just two miles away from Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport in Arlington.
Though this plan just came out today, it’s far from clear as to whether it’s Monumental Sports’ first choice.
