The Western Conference semifinal between the Lakers and the Warriors is one of the most anticipated playoff series in recent years. The two historic franchises had not faced each other in the playoffs since 1991. In addition, this is a new episode in the rivalry between LeBron James and Stephen Curry.
According to TickPick, the tickets are the most expensive ever for a playoff series outside of the Finals. The average purchase price of a seat is $726, and the average price of the cheapest ticket is $446.
And while the prizes at the Chase Center are high, they pale in comparison to those at the Crypto.com Arena.
Indeed, attending Game 3 in Los Angeles will be even more expensive. The average ticket price is $873 ! The last time the average ticket price was this high for a Lakers home game was on April 13, 2016, in Kobe Bryant’s last career game. Spectators then had to pay an average of $937 to attend the last historic “Black Mamba” against the Jazz, where he scored 60 points.
