Great Story BB!!! I had no idea this lady was doing it like that. You Go Gurl!!!
Can anyone direct me to a detailed bio of this great woman. My daughter chose her as the person to profile for Black History month and sadly this is the most info I can find. She is amazing and inspiring and we would like to know a little more about her life before the team and how she came to aquire the team. Thanks.
Good evening mikasmom, thanks again for your comment/question. She was able to become the GM/CEO through the International Baskeball Leaques’ expansion process in Las Vegas, Nevada.
Check this out. Ms. Levi Scott is a scam artist - while she deserves her props of becoming the first African American Woman of the IBL - if you do a little research, you will find that she has left several investors high and dry with no return on their money. She is being sued by different individuals for non payment of services and she treats her players like dirt, including not feeding them if they lose the game.
I’m not trying to shoot down her game, I just want to make sure it’s all being kept real when it comes the reality of the way she does business. It’s a shame that she does, but make sure you do your homework and have your children to real research before they highlight someone who doesn’t represent women and/or African American’s very well.
