Suns owner dismisses lawsuits as 'money grab'
"As you guys know, anyone can file a lawsuit on any day they want for any reason they want, I could file a lawsuit for that question, right? But the truth is, you've actually got to win a lawsuit. Where I'm different than most successful people, or people that you say have a lot money, is we don't settle. So if we don't do anything wrong, I'm not paying someone. If their threat is they're going to go to the media and write (about) a lawsuit, have fun. Cool. Write it."
"I hope you guys all report on how many lawsuits we actually lose. Because we haven't lost one of them and we're not going to lose any of them, to be honest, because they're ridiculous."
Mat Ishbia publicly dismissed multiple lawsuits filed against the Phoenix Suns, labeling them "money grabs" and saying the organization will not settle unless it has done something wrong. The franchise has faced several suits since 2024, including two minority owners seeking records to investigate team finances. Gene Traylor, a former security manager, filed allegations of discrimination, harassment and unlawful retaliation after his firing, while the team said he violated policies on confidential information. Former Mercury interim coach Nikki Blue sued alleging unequal treatment, unequal pay and retaliation. In November, Andrea Trischan sued alleging racial discrimination and unlawful retaliation.
