Tom Brady is the newest member of the Las Vegas Aces, a WNBA team. Brady has achieved a lot of success in football and recently announced his retirement. However, he will still be involved in sports.

The Aces are one of the best WNBA teams and are coming off a championship run. The team is run by Becky Hammon, who had a brief tenure in the NBA with the San Antonio Spurs.

Tom Brady enjoys watching women's sports

One of the reasons why the football legend decided to invest in the Las Vegas Aces is his love for women's sports. Brady revealed that his love for women's sports began when he was watching his sisters play.

"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."
