Jayson Tatum and Patrick Mahomes have a new competitor in the market. You might be wondering what brings an NBA star and an NFL one on the same page. Thanks to the WNBA expansion, these two giants will be nothing more than rivals. With their eyes fixed on bringing the $200 million check and team to their hometowns, Tatum and Mahomes now have a new rival.

The WNBA has already announced new teams in Golden State, Toronto, and Portland, and more than 15 cities are bidding for a 16th team in the league. Jayson Tatum wants to bring the Women’s Basketball league to his hometown St. Louis. On the other hand, the Chiefs’ QB wants to bring a team to Kansas City that he represents in the NFL.
But it looks like the bidding war is about to get a lot ‘spicier’ than expected!
