More than 19,500 people piled into Oakland, California's Oracle Arena to watch Stephen Curry and the Golden State Warriors, on average, every game this season. And now those very popular tickets have become the focus of a lawsuit.
The National Basketball Association's best team can expect to draw droves of fans when it tips off against LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers in Game 1 of the NBA Finals on Thursday night.
But the Warriors' brass has come under fire for how its tickets—some of the most popular in the league—are sold. EBay-owned resale ticket site StubHub alleged in a lawsuit earlier this year that the Warriors and Live Nation-owned Ticketmaster have locked up a "monopoly" on the team's primary and secondary ticket sales.
