TICKETS FOR T-WOLVES' WNBA TEAM WILL RANGE FROM $6 TO $81

          The MN entry into the WNBA announced ticket prices for
     its inaugural season in '99.  Lower-level single-game ticket
     prices will be $81, $39, $27, $16, $13, $8 and $6.  The
     upper-level seats, which will be available for select games,
     will be priced at $13, $8 and $6.  The majority of tickets
     bought as part of a season package will be discounted at
     least $2 per seat from the single-game price (Timberwolves). 
     The team will donate $1 for every paid ticket for the '99
     season to breast cancer research in MN (Timberwolves). In
     Minneapolis, Tim Klobuchar reports that the average ticket
     price for MN's WNBA team is $13.95 -- "almost $20 less per
     single-game ticket" than the T-Wovles' (STAR TRIBUNE, 6/23).
          THEY'RE ON THE BUSS: In L.A., Sparks President Johnnie
     Buss said the team sold 4,900 season tickets at season's
     start, up from 4,200 a year ago (L.A. TIMES, 6/22).
