You probably think of StubHub as a website you can use to buy tickets on the "secondary market," when someone else who has them wants to get rid of them.

That's about to change in a big way.

According to the SportsBusiness Journal, the 76ers have struck a deal with StubHub to give the company control of the team's entire ticket sales operation. It is the first time ever that StubHub will operate the "primary" ticket sales market for a team.

When the deal begins for the 2016-17 season, you'll see tickets on sale straight from the team and tickets up for resale by fans all in the same place.
