A courtside seat used by pop icon Taylor Swift during Game 3 of the 2026 Eastern Conference Finals between the Cleveland Cavaliers and New York Knicks is up for auction, and bids have already hit $6,000.
The online listing states that the sale will close on June 15. The chair was positioned on the floor at Rocket Arena for one of the most-watched contests of the 2026 NBA Playoffs, adding to its appeal among collectors.
Swift’s presence at the May matchup drew widespread attention. Although she has long identified as a Knicks supporter—citing former New York forward Amar’e Stoudemire in a 2014 TIME interview—the singer attended the game with Cavaliers backers, including her fiancé, Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, a lifelong Cleveland sports fan.
The Knicks eventually eliminated the Cavaliers and now hold a 2–0 advantage over the San Antonio Spurs in the NBA Finals. How high the final price for the chair climbs will likely depend on the enthusiasm of Swift’s fan base.
