WNBA All-Star game ticket prices plummet amid Caitlin Clark's injury absence

FOX Nation’s ‘Who Can Forget? The ‘90s’ bounces back to the start of the WNBA, predicting that the league’s new star, Caitlin Clark, could help the league profit after three decades. 

Ticket prices for the WNBA All-Star Game steeply dropped after it was announced Caitlin Clark would miss the game with a groin injury. 

Clark was slated to be an All-Star team captain in just her second season and would lead Team Clark on her home floor at Gainbridge Field House in Indianapolis. 

The cheapest ticket prices on TickPick were as high as $126, with an average resale price of $262, the highest in league history. 

Front Office Sports reported the record prices on Wednesday, before Clark announced she would miss the game.

Clark said Thursday she will not participate in the WNBA All-Star Game or its festivities after she appeared to aggravate a groin injury she sustained earlier in the season.

"I’m so excited for Indy to host WNBA All-Star this weekend. I want to thank the Indianapolis Host Committee and all of the people that have put endless work in over the past year to put this event together," she said. "I know this will be the best All-Star yet.
