DALLAS (AP) — The Dallas Mavericks revealed on
Monday that they are raising season ticket prices for next
season, just weeks after dealing star Luka Doncic to the Los
Angeles Lakers.
The Mavericks said season tickets will go up by an average of
8.61% next season and the increase is due to “ongoing
investments in the team and fan engagement.”
The Mavs have dealt with widespread fan discontent since last
month's trade that sent the popular Doncic to the Lakers in
exchange for a package that includes Anthony Davis, the talented
but often injured 10-time All-Star.
Davis scored 26 points in his Mavericks debut on Feb. 8, but
left the game late with a groin injury and hasn't played since.
Meanwhile, Doncic has thrived with the Lakers, immediately
reviving their title hopes. The five-time All-Star led the Mavs
to the NBA Finals last season, where they lost to the Boston
Celtics.
The Mavericks say that despite the price adjustments,
full-season ticket holders will continue to save 15% to 23%
compared to projected secondary market prices. The team also
said that roughly 4,200 seats per game are still below $40.
