In the dispute between Glen Taylor and the group led by Marc Lore and Alex Rodriguez concerning the sale of the Minnesota Timberwolves, a three-member arbitration panel has ruled in favor of Rodriguez and Lore.

An arbitration panel on Monday ruled 2-1 in favor of Alex Rodriguez and Marc Lore in their quest for a controlling ownership stake of the NBA's Minnesota Timberwolves and the WNBA's Minnesota Lynx.

Marc Lore and Alex Rodriguez are back on track to be the majority owners for the Timberwolves and Lynx after a three-person arbitration panel ruled in their favor on Monday that Glen Taylor was not within his rights to terminate the purchase agreement last spring.
