First the Pawtucket RedSox, next the Maine Red Claws?
The Worcester City Council passed a motion this week asking city officials to reach out to the Boston Celtics to “express interest” in bringing the team’s G League affiliate to the Massachusetts city. As the Worcester Business Journal first reported Wednesday, the motion floats the idea of swiping the Red Claws from Maine once the Celtics finalize their recent agreement to purchase the Portland-based team.
“I just want to extend that olive branch if there’s ever any potential down the road,” City Councilor Sean Rose, who introduced the motion, said during a meeting Tuesday.
