Sep 17 (Field Level Media) – The get-in price for tickets to the New York Knicks’ season opener against the ​Philadelphia 76ers is $1,251, according to TicketData.com.

That ‌figure is higher than the get-in price for any regular-season game during the 2025-26 season.

The reigning NBA champions opened single-game ticket sales to the general public on Wednesday, ‌and ​the get-in price for the ⁠Oct. 20 opener at ⁠Madison Square Garden hit $1,363. The figure had spiked as high as $1,408 this week when single-game tickets were first made available to Knicks Fan ​First Chase cardholders on Monday.

The season opener is shaping up to be one of the ⁠marquee games of the regular ⁠season.

In addition to the Knicks coming ​off the franchise’s first NBA championship in 53 years, ​the 76ers signed LeBron James and acquired Jaylen ‌Brown over the offseason to team with Joel Embiid and Tyrese Maxey.

The get-in price for the game reached as high as $1,962 when TicketData.com began ⁠tracking it after the matchup was announced in August.

The average get-in price for the Knicks’ 45 scheduled preseason ⁠and regular ‌season home games is currently $262. That ⁠is more than double that of ​any ‌other team, with tickets to get ​into Los ⁠Angeles Lakers home games averaging $130, followed by the Boston Celtics at $99.

At the other end of the spectrum, the current average get-in price for Charlotte Hornets and Memphis Grizzlies home games both sit at just $23.
