Stubhub won’t be making any money off of sales for either Friday’s Lakers matchup against the Trail Blazers or their faceoff with the Clippers whenever that’s rescheduled.
The online secondary market ticket broker has pledged to donate 100% of their profits in those two games, sending the money to the Kobe & Vanessa Bryant Family Foundation.
According to the Los Angeles Times, seat prices at the Staples Center for Friday have climbed steadily. Fans anticipate some sort of tribute to the late NBA star will be held.
The Bryant’s charity gives scholarships and runs a youth soccer camp whose aim is to help young adults become leaders through what they’ve learned playing sports.
