NBA owners have resorted to hiking ticket prices during one of the worst inflation crises in U.S. history to make up for dismal attendance numbers, according to a report.

The league is reporting that the average “gate” earnings per team have risen 10.2 percent this season over the pre-pandemic season of 2018-19.
