Hurricanes owner Tom Dundon leading group to buy Portland Trail Blazers
Carolina Hurricanes owner Tom Dundon and a group of investors have reached a tentative agreement to buy the NBA team the Portland Trail Blazers. Why it matters: The deal — reportedly valued at more than $4 billion, according to ESPN — raises questions about the feasibility of Dundon's plans to submit a bid to bring a Major League Baseball team to Raleigh, given the large transaction price. Driving the news: The Carolina Hurricanes confirmed that Dundon was in the process of buying the Trail Blazers on Wednesday. Reports indicate that the potential ownership group includes some Portland-area investors, and the goal is to keep the team in Oregon. Former owner of the Trail Blazers and Seattle Seahawks Paul Allen, the Microsoft cofounder who died in 2018, had in his will a stipulation that his teams be sold, according to Sportico, which first reported the Trail Blazers sale to Dundon. What they're saying: Dundon is "excited about the opportunity" to acquire the Trail Blazers, a spokesperson for the Hurricanes told Axios. "This will not impact the Carolina Hurricanes, and Tom still wants to bring Major League Baseball to North Carolina," the spokesperson added. Zoom in: Dundon has invested significantly in the Hurricanes since buying the team for $420 million in 2018, and his connections are shaping development across the region. He overhauled the Canes' front office and helped lead the team to seven-straight playoff appearances. Dundon and Dallas-based Pacific Elm Properties are investing $1 billion into turning Lenovo Center's parking lots into an entertainment and mixed-use destination. To land those investments from Dundon, however, Raleigh and Wake County committed hundreds of millions of dollars toward renovating Lenovo Center. Pacific Elm — which is part of Dundon Capital Partners, an investment firm Dundon founded — is now proposing an outdoor recreation center at Lake Crabtree Park, hinting at bringing an expansion of the U.S. Whitewater Center to Raleigh.

Brazil's Lula announces $5.5 billion in credits for exporters hit by US tariffs
SAO PAULO (AP) — The Brazilian government on Wednesday unveiled a plan to support local exporters affected by a 50% tariff imposed by U.S. President Donald Trump on several products from the South American nation. Dubbed 'Sovereign Brazil," the plan provides for a credit lifeline of 30 billion reais ($5.5 billion), among other measures. Brazil's President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva described the plan, which includes a bill to be sent to Congress, as a first step to help local exporters. Congressional leaders attended Wednesday's ceremony, a first in months, in a sign of growing political support for the leftist leader in response to Trump's tariffs. Other measures announced by the Brazilian government include postponing tax charges for companies affected by U.S. tariffs, providing 5 billion reais ($930,000) in tax credits to small and medium-sized companies until the end of 2026 and expanding access to insurance against cancelled orders. The plan also incentivizes public purchases of items that could not be exported to the U.S. 'We cannot be scared, nervous and anxious when there is a crisis. A crisis is for us to create new things,' Lula said. 'In this case, what is unpleasant is that the reasons given to impose sanctions against Brazil do not exist.' Trump has directly tied the 50% tariff on many imported Brazilian goods to the judicial situation of his embattled ally, former President Jair Bolsonaro, who is currently under house arrest.

Who is new Portland Trail Blazers owner Tom Dundon?
The new owner of the Portland Trail Blazers is already familiar with the colors black and red. Tom Dundon, the owner of the NHL's Carolina Hurricanes, reached an agreement Wednesday, Aug. 13 to purchase the Trail Blazers from the estate of Paul Allen. The sale price was not available as of early Wednesday afternoon. CNBC, which provides valuations of NBA franchises, listed the franchise at $3.65 billion in its most recent list. Since Allen's death in 2018, his sister, Jody Allen, became the executor and trustee of the estate and therefore the chairperson of the Trail Blazers and NFL's Seattle Seahawks. Paul Allen's estate had dictated that the majority of his wealth be donated to philanthropy. In May 2025, the estate formally put the Blazers up for sale. Paul Allen, the co-founder of Microsoft alongside Bill Gates, had owned the Trail Blazers since 1988. Here's everything you need to know about new Trail Blazers owner Tom Dundon. Who is Tom Dundon? Dundon, 53, is a billionaire businessman who is the co-founder and chairman of Dallas-based private investment firm Dundon Capital Partners. He's also the co-founder and chairman of Southpaw Capital Partners. Born in New York and raised in Dallas, Dundon graduated from Southern Methodist in 1993 with a bachelor's degree in economics. His investments have spanned sports and entertainment, to real estate, healthcare, hospitality, tech and automotive and financial services. His first big break in the business landscape came in 1997, when he and a collection of partners formed a car financing corporation that became Santander Consumer USA. Dundon eventually rose to become the company's chairman and CEO. In 2015, Dundon stepped aside from that role and formed Dundon Capital Partners. He's also the majority owner of a Dallas-based real estate company called Pacific Elm Properties and is an investor in Topgolf Callaway Brands and Pickleball Inc. Dundon is also active in several Dallas-area charities and launched the Dundon Family Charitable Fund, which focuses on academic and athletic initiatives at several universities. When did Tom Dundon buy the Carolina Hurricanes? In 2017, Dundon's name surfaced in sales discussions to purchase the Hurricanes from previous longtime owner Peter Karmanos Jr. In January 2018, Dundon completed the sale and became the majority owner of the team. At the time, per Forbes, Dundon purchased 61% of the franchise's shares for $420 million. That included operating rights to the Lenovo Center (previously PNC Arena), the arena in Raleigh, North Carolina where the Hurricanes play. Then, in June 2021, Dundon purchased the remaining shares to become the sole owner and proprietor of the Hurricanes. The Hurricanes ended a nine-season playoff drought in his first full season of ownership and have made the postseason in all seven seasons. They have reached the Eastern Conference finals three times, including last season.
