USA Today reported, citing data from TickPick, that Sunday’s afternoon game in Chicago is on record for the most expensive WNBA game in history. 

Citing that same data, NBC Sports Chicago reported that the average ticket price for this weekend’s contest is $271, with the most expensive ticket available listed at just over $9,000. 

The year’s rookie class has helped draw record crowds and viewers, and the former Iowa star is leading the way. She dropped a team-high of 23 points and nine assists in last weekend’s win over the Sky, which became the most-watched WNBA game on any network in 23 years.
