Fever-Sky ticket prices after Caitlin Clark injury
Get-in prices for the Fever-Sky contest on June 7 plummeted after the team announced on that Clark would be out for at least two weeks with a left quadriceps strain.
In the first 48 hours after the injury announcement, resale ticket prices dropped 71% from $86 to $25. On Thursday, the Chicago Tribune reported that the cheapest ticket on SeatGeek is going for less than $20.
At the start of the season, this Fever-Sky game was flexed to the United Center in Chicago — the largest arena in the NBA that seats roughly 21,000 — in anticipation of Clark drawing larger crowds. The ticket market has spoken on just how highly anticipated her presence was.
