After spending their entire histories in Washington D.C. and Maryland, two of the District of Columbia's oldest sports teams may soon be on the move.
Monumental Sports & Entertainment—the group that owns the Wizards and Capitals, as well as the Mystics—has spoken to governmental officials about potentially moving the two teams from Washington D.C. proper to Northern Virginia, according to a Friday evening report from The Washington Post.
"Two people familiar with the talks, including a Monumental official, described them as preliminary and exploratory," the Post reported, noting that Monumental has also been in contact with city officials to potentially fund arena upgrades.
