Ted Leonsis thinks Wizards can follow formula set by Capitals, Mystics titles

You could call it “The Year of Leonsis,” though mathematically it’s a bit of a stretch. The Washington Capitals’ historic Stanley Cup win was 16 months ago, but the list of victories for Monumental Sports and Entertainment grew this October.

Ted Leonsis kicked off the month by formally announcing plans for a sportsbook at Capital One Arena, which is on track to be the first facility of its kind inside a U.S. professional sports venue. Then the Washington Mystics won their first WNBA title — in their new home on the St. Elizabeths Hospital campus that opened last fall — and Bradley Beal signed an extension with the Washington Wizards.
