The Indiana Pacers are increasing their ticket prices for the first time in five years.

The Pacers are offering full- and half-season packages and taking deposits on 11-game packages for the 2011-12 season at rates that are about 9 percent higher than this season.

Single-game ticket prices have yet to be determined.

"The ticket packages we're selling today are higher than last year's packages, but they're still less than what they were five years ago," said Rick Fuson, Pacers Sports & Entertainment chief operations officer.

The price increase comes after the Pacers, who were last in the league in home attendance this season, reduced or kept ticket prices the same for four straight years.
