Republican gubernatorial candidate Dino Rossi was at the Sonics game against Sacramento Sunday night. Rossi reiterated his support for a proposed $300 KeyArena remodel. He also said he believes Gov. Chris Gregoire should call as special session to allow for state lawmakers to allocate $75 million to make the project whole.
“Normally I don’t support these types of things,” Rossi said, when asked about the proposal after the game. “But this was a very rare deal that was brought forward. You have four people who have stepped forward who really weren’t interested in owning a team. But they understand what it meant for the region.
“I’ve never seen a deal like this before, which is why I stepped up.”
The Sonics fall to 40 games below .500 with a loss to Sacramento on Sunday.
