Wondering if they could have like 950 people in the crowd still and auction off tickets. Would be surreal, but kind of a once in a lifetime experience to be watching an NBA game, at or near courtside with so few people in attendance.

Marketing hack: buy expensive ticket, hire yeller with sign; make it onto expensive TV broadcast and go viral.

If you spread people out sufficiently, I feel like it should be fine?

Have to maintain that separation through the whole game and you still have contact transmission possible through surfaces.

Also with that tiny number of people various facility costs become prohibitive.
