The Doncic effect continues to wreak havoc in Los Angeles. The earthquake of his transfer has aftershocks everywhere, not only in the sporting aspect, but, as is logical, in the interest it has aroused in fans of the Lakers and basketball.
In fact, for the game against the Jazz, in which Luka Doncic made his debut as a Lakers player, the cheapest tickets went from $43, the price at which they were sold shortly before the trade, to $193 after the deal. The price almost quintupled. And we are talking about the cheapest seats and against a very uninteresting opponent such as the Jazz, one of the worst teams of the season. Courtside tickets reached $7,000. Of course, as soon as it was known that Luka would make his debut in this game, the existing tickets disappeared.
And after the transfer, there is a date marked in red on the calendar that is the visit of the Dallas Mavericks to the Crypto.com Arena. The Texans, the team from which the Slovenian comes, will play in Los Angeles on February 25 and at the time of writing, tickets were already averaging $1,200 with $269 for the cheapest and $14,594 for courtside seats
Official ticketing platforms such as Ticketmaster, StubHub, VividSeats, StubHub, TicketNetwork, and GameTime have already announced that regular tickets are sold out and only resale tickets remain. In many of these virtual stores, the cheapest tickets available were not less than $300.
Luka Doncic gets warm welcome from new Lakers teammates in the tunnel before debut
In addition, after the transfer of Luka Doncic, there has been a huge increase in demand for tickets to the Lakers home games between now and the end of the regular season. There are cases where there has also been an increase in sales of some of the Lakers rivals who will host the yellow team, with Doncic in the squad.
