Chase Center is known for having some of the highest ticket prices of any NBA arena, but they don’t even compare to what fans are going to have to fork up to see the Kings face the Warriors in Game 1 of their first round series.
The get-in price for Game 1 at the Golden 1 Center is $427 according to TickPick. That would make it the most expensive first-round game since tracking began. The average price of a pair of tickets for Game 1 is $1,100 (after taxes and fees).
Bay Area fans hoping to catch a game would be wise to wait before the series heads back to San Francisco. The average cost of Game 3 tickets are about half the price as the tickets for Game 1, $552 after taxes and fees.
That makes sense. The Kings are playing their first playoff game in 16 seasons, whereas the Warriors have been to the NBA Finals six times in the last eight years.
