“When I have a great idea and want to make an impact, why do we have to wait?”
Just six months after Suns and Mercury owner Mat Ishbia announced a new, state-of-the-art office space and practice facility downtown – it’s already set to begin operations on Monday, April 8.
CEO Josh Bartelstein spearheaded the operation for the 76,000+ square foot campus.
It boasts an open concept complete with indoor and outdoor basketball courts, pickleball court, golf simulator, arcade games, ping pong table, cafe, cafeteria, and employee fitness center.
While the Suns will continue to use their practice facility on 44th street, the Mercury will get a facility of its own:
