Tom Brady might have left the NFL behind, but there is no slowing down. Taking to Instagram, the former quarterback announced his move to the WNBA after becoming one of the owners of the female basketball team, the Las Vegas Aces. “It was a matter of time before I was back in the building with some of the greatest athletes in the world,” Brady said. “I’m ready to contribute in any way possible as a member of such a great organization. What an honor.”
Speaking further, the former NFL star touched on his decision to acquire an ownership interest in the team — a move apparently inspired by his siblings. “I grew up with three older sisters. They were all incredible athletes in their own right,” Brady shared. “They were role models to me. It’s where my love of women’s sports began. I tagged along, I was the annoying little brother to all their games. And they were the best athletes in our house, and they’re still a great inspiration to me.”
According to The U.S. Sun, Brady’s oldest sister Maureen formerly played softball and earned an All-American honor before going on to pursue a nursing career. Similarly, his second oldest sister Nancy also played basketball and softball back in the day. These days, however, Brady is the superstar sibling and there is not an ounce of doubt that he has made them all proud.
