This July, a Summer League basketball game in Dallas made national headlines—but not just for what happened on the court.

When Bronny James and Cooper Flagg faced off in front of a sold-out crowd, courtside tickets hit $2,500. That’s not a typo. It was a record-setting moment for the NBA Summer League—and a wake-up call for any business still treating tickets as “just perks.”

In today’s market, live events are strategic assets—and this game is a case study in how ticket value, timing, and demand converge to drive ROI.

🔥 The New Economics of Live Events

Why would anyone pay $2,500 for a Summer League ticket?

Because value isn’t about the event type—it’s about what the moment represents.

• Star power: Bronny James (yes, LeBron’s son) and Cooper Flagg (Mavericks’ #1 pick) made this more than a game—it was a glimpse of the NBA’s future.
  
  
• Exclusivity: First-time appearance in Dallas. Limited seats. High demand. The perfect storm.
  
  
• Networking: Courtside wasn’t just about watching the game—it was about being seen at the center of the action.
  
  

That’s why corporate ticket holders who planned ahead didn’t just get access—they got a competitive advantage.
