Vince Carter, Tracy McGrady Become Minority Owners Of Buffalo Bills
The Hall of Fame players were teammates on the Toronto Raptors.
Two NBA Hall of Famers are now part of an NFL ownership group. According to the Buffalo Bills, former Toronto Raptors teammates Vince Carter and Tracy McGrady are two of 10 limited partners approved to join the team’s ownership group.
Tracy McGrady released a statement on social media stating it was “a dream come true for me and my family” to become part of the Buffalo Bills ownership group.
“I’m excited to share that I’ve joined the Buffalo Bills organization as a minority owner—a dream come true for me and my family,” McGrady said. “Sports have been a lifelong passion, and the chance to contribute to such a top-tier organization is a true honor. After meeting the Pegulas, understanding their vision, embracing their values, and sharing their commitment to winning, this decision felt natural. I’m incredibly proud to be part of this journey.”
It’s with extreme gratitude that I fully embrace this moment and understand the gravity of this opportunity.
If you can dream it, you can live it and I hope my journey will inspire those who believe in and bet on themselves.
