The much-anticipated first-ever WNBA matchup between Caitlin Clark and Paige Bueckers is already making waves—before it’s even played. Set for June 27, 2025, the game will take place at the American Airlines Center in Dallas, home of the NBA’s Dallas Mavericks. And with ticket prices already through the roof, it’s clear this event is set to break records.
Paige Bueckers, who was selected as the No. 1 pick in the 2025 WNBA Draft , joins the Dallas Wings fresh off leading UConn to a national championship . Her highly anticipated debut against Clark and the Indiana Fever is drawing massive interest, with the cheapest tickets listed at $255 and courtside seats pushing over $5,000.
In response to overwhelming demand, the game was moved from its original venue at the College Park Center at the University of Texas-Arlington to the larger American Airlines Center. Caitlin Clark, herself no stranger to big crowds, endorsed the move, saying that Bueckers’ star power deserves a venue of this size.
“This arena is fun to play in, t's small and loud, but honestly, they should move the games to American Airlines because I think Paige has that type of draw,” Clark said in an interview with the Houston Chronicle.
The prices for this game are set to make history, with the average ticket price for Clark’s previous game with Angel Reese and the Chicago Sky reaching an all-time high of $271. As this matchup between two of the biggest stars in women’s basketball draws near, it's clear that the event will not only be a battle on the court, but a landmark moment for the sport itself.
