Grant Hill, wife, become part-owners of Orlando pro soccer clubs

Basketball Hall of Famer Grant Hill and his wife Tamia joined the ownership groups of Orlando City SC (MLS) and Orlando Pride (NWSL) clubs, majority owner Mark Wilf announced Friday.

Hill played six seasons for the Orlando Magic during his 19-year NBA career that included seven All-Star appearances. He is currently a co-owner of the Atlanta Hawks.

Hill, 51, also was a famed college basketball player who was part of two national title teams at Duke before embarking on his NBA career in 1994. Tamia Hill is an R&B singer who has been nominated for six Grammy Awards.

No financial details were divulged in the announcement.

“From the moment we met the Wilfs, we were impressed with their vision for the club and the passion they have for giving back to the Central Florida community, something that is also of great importance to us,” Grant and Tamia Hill said in a news release. “The future is very promising for both teams, and we are excited to support Orlando City, as well as the opportunity to be a part of the Orlando Pride and elevate women in sports.”

Hill’s family, which includes daughters Myla and Lael, lives in the Orlando area. Myla, 21, is an MMA fighter. Lael, 16, plays soccer.

“We’re very excited to add both Tamia and Grant Hill as part of our ownership group for Orlando City and Orlando Pride,” Wilf said in a release. “Over the past few years, we have gotten to know and appreciate Tamia and Grant, their passion for our clubs, and their commitment to the community.

“Both boast professional resumes that speak for themselves and are highly accomplished individuals in the business world but, more importantly, they are incredible contributors to the greater Orlando area. Tamia and Grant have shown passion and support for our teams for many years, including being staunch supporters of the Orlando Pride since Day One, so we are looking forward to continuing to build our organization through their influence and dedication.”

Grant Hill also works as a basketball analyst for CBS and Turner Sports.
