NBA great and Miami Heat legend Dwyane Wade has bought an ownership stake in the Utah Jazz, becoming one of the organization's minority owners, the team announced Friday.
"As a businessman, entrepreneur, and investor, I bring a lot to this partnership outside of my basketball experience," Wade, 39, said in a statement. "I'm excited to help take the Utah Jazz to the next level." The three-time NBA champion and 13-time All-Star talked to ESPN about the significance of the news. "This goes way beyond the dream I had to just play basketball in the NBA," Wade said. "I've seen Shaq do it in Sacramento. I've seen Grant Hill do it in Atlanta. I've seen Jordan do it in Charlotte."An Arizona grand jury indicted 18 people Wednesday in the ongoing investigation into an alleged attempt to use alternate electors after the 2020 presidential election as part of a wider alleged conspiracy to falsely declare then-President Donald Trump the winner, the state's attorney general announced.
Almost four out of every 10 people in the United States live in a place where air pollution is considered bad enough to put their health at risk, the American Lung Association warned in its latest "State of the Air" report released on Wednesday. That proportion of people — about 39% of the population — had risen sharply since earlier rounds of pollutant data were analyzed for the annual report last year, and the trends were especially pronounced in certain parts of the country.
