Brady, for his part, said he is excited to be a part of the Aces organization and made it clear that women's sports have been an integral part of his life.
“I am very excited to be part of the Las Vegas Aces organization,” the NFL legend said via the official Aces website. “My love for women’s sports began at a young age when I would tag along to all my older sisters’ games -- They were by far the best athletes in our house! We celebrated their accomplishments together as a family, and they remain a great inspiration to me.
“I have always been a huge fan of women’s sports, and I admire the work that the Aces’ players, staff, and the WNBA continue to do to grow the sport and empower future generations of athletes. To be able to contribute in any way to that mission as a member of the Aces organization is an incredible honor.”
