Knicks NBA Finals tickets at Madison Square Garden for Game 3 are starting above $8,700, marking one of the most expensive playoff events in sports history. According to multiple ticket platforms, the get-in price has climbed as high as $9,130 on Gametime, surpassing even Super Bowl pricing levels just days before the Monday, June 8 matchup against the San Antonio Spurs.
The surge reflects unprecedented demand for the Knicks’ first NBA Finals home games in 27 years. After the team’s 105-95 victory in Game 1 in San Antonio, ticket prices for the New York games have skyrocketed across every secondary marketplace. Median prices for Game 3 are hovering around $17,398, while the most expensive courtside seats are listed for over $100,000.
Fans looking for cheaper alternatives have found that Game 2 in San Antonio had get-in prices around $655, a stark contrast to the MSG games. The price difference underscores the historic nature of the Knicks’ Finals return and the intensity of New York basketball culture. As the series progresses and Monday approaches, analysts expect the get-in prices to climb even higher, particularly if the Knicks secure a 2-0 series lead.
