Lakers Add Second Row Courtside Seats

The Lakers are adding a second row of courtside seats for the 2026 NBA playoffs, according to Edward Lewis of the California Post. The new seats will cost 78 percent of typical courtside prices, which usually run from $20,000 to $40,000. That puts these tickets around $15,000 to $30,000 each. Fans in the new row will get premium chairs and VIP club access, even if the view won't match the first row. Lakers floor seats have been sold out for 50 years, so there’s clearly demand. The bigger issue is getting deep into June with Luka Dončić out for the regular season with a hamstring injury and Austin Reaves sidelined four-to-six weeks with an oblique injury.
