I still have no idea why an outdoor stadium can't have 33% occupancy yet indoor restaurants can.

I think you oversimplified it. Restaurants can go up to 50% capacity if they have room to keep tables 6 feet apart. I guess a stadium could do the same - but I imagine it would have to be first come first serve and not reserved seats or presale.

I would think reserved/pre-sale would actually be better. Keep people from lining up at the ticket window and you could also designate entrances close to the seats to keep people from lining up to enter at one place. You can also cut the stadium into sections for concession and bathrooms to avoid potential cross contamination (ex. in a 20,000 seat stadium, limit total people in the stadium to 10,000, cut the stadium into 4 parts each with seprate entrances, concessions and bathrooms. if a person does come in with Covid, the maximum "community spread" would be 2,500 vice 10,000.)

I get your point. Just a clarification regarding maximum community spread. The first level is 2500. They in turn might have contact with 10 people each ( now 25,000 exposed at second level ), who in turn contact 10 people (250,000 At 3rd level), etc. That is the inherent problem with large gatherings. The greater the delay in identifying the initial positive case and then somehow contact tracing and quarantining the 2500 ( non trivial task) the greater the spread.
I think a lot of Covid "management" visa vie large events can be learned from security crowd management. Certainly more to it, but "crowd control" focuses on flow control, rapid ingress and exit and identifying and mitigating choke points are primary factors that security looks at for any mass gathering.

Seems like you're assuming the 1st 2500 are all in contact with 1 suspect CV-19er. There's the possibility no-one is infected

Yep u are correct. The topic was about maximum community spread. Another challenge is the contact tracing to determine who, if any, of the 2500 are infected. Would also seem to be non-trivial task.
I tend to doubt they make an exception just for basketball.
