In 2007, investors attempted to and failed to raise enough money so that the team could join the Women's National Basketball Association (WNBA) for the 2008 season.

They were undefeated on their home court for 26 games until losing to the San Diego Siege on February 14, 2006.

Star players for the Chill included Ruth Riley, Katie Cronin, and Becky Hammon.

On March 16, 2007, King announced that he acquired most of the $15 million needed to revive the Chill as an expansion team in the WNBA for the 2008 season.

On September 12, 2007, however, it was announced that the Chill would not be an expansion team for the 2008 season due to the lack of funds raised.
