Tickets for LeBron James’ potential final game at Madison Square are most expensive since Kobe Bryant’s farewell

LeBron James is scheduled to play what could be his final game at Madison Square Garden against the New York Knicks on Sunday. If you want a seat there to watch, it’s not going to be cheap.

The average ticket price for the Lakers-Knicks game as of Thursday morning was $900, according to Gametime — the most for an NBA regular-season game since Kobe Bryant’s farewell on April 13, 2016, which was $1,049. The get-in price for Sunday’s game is $457.

James has not announced this is his final season but has admitted it’s certainly a possibility. While making his only regular-season trip to play his hometown Cleveland Cavaliers on Wednesday, he became emotional while watching a video tribute from the team before the game.

“I’m just trying to take everything in, not take the moments for granted,” James said. “Because it could be [my last season]. I obviously haven’t made a decision on the future, but it very well could be.”

James has delivered a number of memorable performances at the Garden, including a 52-point effort — his second 50-point game at MSG — when he was playing for the Cleveland Cavaliers in 2009 that came two nights after Bryant scored 61 there.

Caitlin Clark will make her debut during the Lakers-Knicks game as part of NBC’s “Basketball Night in America” coverage.
