Aces sell out games vs. Caitlin Clark, Indiana Fever

The Fever's first of two scheduled visits to Las Vegas are May 25 and July 2 and went on sale at 10 a.m. and were sold out by noon.

LAS VEGAS — Tickets for the Las Vegas Aces’ first WNBA games against the Indiana Fever — and presumably Caitlin Clark — sold out Tuesday within two hours.

The Fever’s first of two scheduled visits to Las Vegas are May 25 and July 2 and went on sale at 10 a.m. and were sold out by noon, according to a team spokesperson. The team had sold out its allotment of 8,600 season tickets last month for the 12,000-seat Michelob Ultra Arena at Mandalay Bay.

Tickets for those two games already have hit four figures on the secondary market with Clark’s expected visit. While upper-deck tickets are available for as low $69 on StubHub for the May 25 contest, lower-bowl tickets are selling for as much as $4,950 and nothing less than $494.

Clark, college basketball’s biggest star this season, has helped to advance the Iowa Hawkeyes to the NCAA Women’s Final Four, which is scheduled for this weekend in Cleveland. She scored 41 points Monday night to the lead the Iowa to the regional championship against LSU.

Her next destination should be the Indiana Fever, who are expected to take her with the top pick in the WNBA Draft in two weeks.

On May 24, the Fever play the Los Angeles Sparks at the Long Beach State’s Walter Pyramid. Single-game Sparks tickets have yet to go on sale but the Fever game is specifically excluded from Los Angeles’ mini-plans.

The StubHub prices for the first Sparks-Fever game at the 4,000-seat Long Beach facility range from $132 in the last row to $2,300 courtside.

Known for her three-point shooting that rivals NBA star Stephen Curry, Clark became the all-time scoring leader in college basketball this season.

The Aces are the two-time defending champions of the WNBA.
