If there were court-side tickets where they could get some camera time like Laker, soon to be Clipper games then yes. Otherwise, they will occupy a portion of the suites and club level and that is it.

It'll never happen in City of Industry. Ed Roski's been trying for years and years and nothing has changed.
Had Philip Anschutz not gotten all crazy last year, the deal was done. But he went nuts, decided to sell AEG, then decided NOT to sell AEG and instead, fired Tim Leiweke, the guy that made everything happen at Staples, L.A. Live, the Galaxy, etc.
At that point, the NFL owners took a pause. But if it's going to happen, it'll happen in DTLA. Or it won't happen at all.
