The Philadelphia 76ers’ game at the New York Knicks, one of three games opening the NBA season on Oct. 20, is the league’s most expensive regular-season ticket for 2026-27, with a get-in price of $1,474.
Based on ticketing data for 1,194 regular season and NBA Cup games USA TODAY obtained from TicketData on Oct. 19, the premium for that game is far from shocking.

As the defending champions, Jalen Brunson and the Knicks are the priciest home team in the league, with a median get-in price of $226 at Madison Square Garden. That’s double the next highest median, held by the Los Angeles Lakers.
Meanwhile, LeBron James and the 76ers command the biggest road premium. Games featuring the 76ers carry a median ticket-price premium of 242% compared to the typical price for the rest of a team’s home slate.
As such, when you put the Knicks and the 76ers together, it produces a pricey match-up (plus, New York will be raising its first NBA championship banner in more than 50 years).
It’s about three times as expensive as the next priciest ticket — New York’s Christmas Day NBA Finals rematch against the San Antonio Spurs has a get-in price of $487.

The median get-in price league-wide is $43.
