It appears the Wilfs won’t be getting into the basketball business, at least not yet.
After a report from ESPN surfaced Tuesday that said the Wilf family, owners of the Vikings, were serious about acquiring the Wolves from Glen Taylor, sources told the Star Tribune on Wednesday that there are no active talks between Taylor and the Wilfs.
Taylor confirmed Tuesday that he was exploring the sale of the team with the help of merchant bank Raine Group.
Raine Group and Taylor had reached out to gauge the Wilfs’ interest, and the sides had some dialogue, but it hasn’t continued.
