Australian fans were misled into believing NBA stars such as the Los Angeles Lakers' LeBron James would feature in games in Sydney and Melbourne last year AFP/Frederic J. BROWNSYDNEY: A sports promoter has promised to refund fans left disappointed by poor views and a lack of big-name NBA stars, such as LeBron James, at two Australia v USA basketball matches last year.
"In our view, TEG Live's conduct was unacceptable, and we are pleased around 5,000 consumers will receive automatic refunds," ACCC chair Rod Sims said. Many of the premium seats - which cost between US$895 and US$3,995 - had obstructed views of the court.Advertising also suggested top NBA stars such as the Los Angeles Lakers superstar James and Kevin Durant of the Brooklyn Nets would be playing in the exhibition games, when the promoter had not confirmed their appearance.
