June 5, 2026 — Tickets for Game 3 of the NBA Finals between the New York Knicks and the San Antonio Spurs at Madison Square Garden have become the most expensive in league history, and resale prices continue to climb.
Marketplace data released Friday show that no previous NBA Finals game has commanded higher demand. While exact figures vary across platforms, organizers and ticket brokers report that average resale costs have already eclipsed the record set during last year’s championship series, with premium seats increasing by the hour.
The surge reflects both the Knicks’ first Finals appearance at home since the 1990s and the limited capacity of Madison Square Garden compared with newer NBA arenas. Industry analysts say the combination of a loyal fan base and a historic matchup against the Spurs is driving buyers to pay unprecedented sums for entry.
Game 3 is scheduled to tip off Tuesday night in Manhattan. Officials at MSG advise fans to purchase through verified channels to avoid counterfeit tickets, noting that prices are likely to remain volatile until shortly before game time.
