Celebrity row will be packed for Game 3 at Madison Square Garden on June 8 as the Knicks host their first NBA Finals game in 27 years. Even President Donald Trump announced he will be attending. Will you be there?
It won’t be cheap as ticket prices for the MSG games have been skyrocketing to historic levels, especially after New York took the first two games from the Spurs in San Antonio.

Before the NBA Finals began, the cheapest ticket to Monday’s Game 3 in New York was $3,789, but as of Saturday morning, the lowest-priced single ticket, up in Section 225, was over $11,500 on Stubhub. If you want to get down near the court and all the celebrities, you can pick up a single ticket in Section 6D for just over $100,000. That’s not a typo.
