NEW YORK – Demand for tickets to Game 3 of the NBA playoff series between the Boston Celtics and the New York Knicks is so high that it will cost a fan more than $600 on the resale market just to get into Madison Square Garden on Saturday.
The cheapest ticket on Thursday ranged from $626 on StubHub to $795 on TickPick.
TickPick announced on X on Thursday, when its lowest entry price was $706, that it was the most expensive Knicks ticket recorded.
The Knicks have become the most exciting story of the playoffs, after erasing 20-point deficits to beat the defending champion Celtics in the first two games of the best-of-seven Eastern Conference semifinals.
The Knicks, eliminated in the conference semifinals the last two years, would reach the Eastern finals for the first time since 2000 if they win two more games against the Celtics.
