I think you probably could, but I wouldn't increase your courtside or luxury boxes. I think your change to $20 for lower tier is good. Bleachers, maybe go to $7-8...not too big an increase but should give you a receipts boost.

You could raise the prices by a dollar or two for the bleachers and lower tier if they are at or near max. But the information in Game Manual > Arena says:
"The happier your fans are, the more of each type of ticket they will buy, and fans will buy the most expensive tickets they can afford. To maximize your ticket revenue, you should play around with the prices of the tickets, as well as the number of available seats of each type. For example, if you're consistently selling out all of your bleachers, you might try expanding your arena to include more bleachers, raising the price of the bleacher tickets, or lower the price of your lower-tier seats."
What this means to me is raise them if they are full and see if they stay full. I would also expand them at the same time. If your attendance dips then lower your prices for one or both.

My Max happens to be at the courtside seats. I just increased the number that I had and increased the price bleachers by $2

I just looked at your last home games and the two most recent were against an NBBA team and the #1 team in our league so it makes sense they had high attendance. You should max your Courtside seats at 500 and I would personally raise the price of luxury boxes. I always fill most of my arena with games against top seeded teams and rivalries.

And Cup games are artificially higher, anyway.

Do private league games and scrimmages count toward league leader averages? So should I manipulate my players stats in these meaningless games to get them in the All-Star game?

Pretty sure they don't. Private league games would count toward the PL stats and scrims aren't official games/ more like sparring

I tallied the stats and private league games don't factor in, but I couldn't count in scrimmages because I was calculating stats on Miguel Isuzquiza, my starting PG (but he's better than my SG, too) and he doesn't play in scrimmages. I am able to get him enough minutes in my two regular league games so he never plays scrimmages, or at least not yet.

I think his only uses are for experimenting with game mechanics. Due to age he has massive skill drops and a very low salary which means he won't be a burden to the team. I looked up some of the Buzzerbeater records and most of them are against a team with players that have atrocious skills. I wonder if a "lucky fan" would have better skills than this. Plus it looks like he sold for over 100k which means there is a demand for players like this.
