Local semi-pro basketball team to continue playing with new ownership
Placeholder Image
The Gainesville Heat will keep playing. The new semi-pro basketball team, whose continued existence was in doubt after initial owner Joshua Randolph was arrested on numerous charges, including deposit account fraud, theft and forgery, has been able to start its inaugural season after all under new owner and Gainesville resident Rosalind Green, a team press release reported. The new ownership was permitted by American Basketball Association CEO Joe Newman, who said at the time of Randolph’s arrest that he would work to keep the team active.
