The Lakers, Clippers and Kings lost in the playoffs, helping the Sparks move a game against Caitlin Clark and the Indiana Fever to Crypto.com Arena.
The Sparks were poised to host Caitlin Clark and the Indiana Fever on May 24 at the snug Walter Pyramid, a venue that seats 4,000. It was an odd choice that left lots of potential revenue on the table, as other WNBA teams tried to maximize the number of seats they had available for games featuring Clark, college basketball's all-time scoring leader and the No. 1 pick in the 2024 draft.
When asked about potentially moving the game during the Sparks' recent media day, general manager Raegan Pebley said team officials understood the interest and demand for tickets that has been steadily growing. 'This is an incredible class, we're going to see continued classes start to rotate into the WNBA in the years to come. Again, that’s part of the impact of a Lisa Leslie and Candace Parker and all the other Sparks that have come before,' Pebley said.
