The Knicks can no longer sweep the NBA Finals, and as a result, money in the ticket resale market is quickly shifting toward a potential Game 6 next week at Madison Square Garden.

New York’s 115–111 loss to San Antonio in Game 3 on Monday generated yet another day of chaotic movement across an already frenetic ticket market for the event. 

As of Tuesday morning, low-end, get-in pricing for Wednesday’s Game 4 sank below $4,800 per ticket. That’s less than a third of where the market was on Saturday and just over half the level on Monday. The precipitous drop is happening as Game 4 is no longer a potential clinching scenario as the Knicks seek their first NBA title since 1973.

A potential Game 6 on June 16, meanwhile, is seeing another resurgence in pricing after a slight dip prior to Monday’s Game 3—which included a heavy show of security for a visit by U.S. President Donald Trump.

Game 6, if necessary, now carries a get-in price of nearly $12,000 per ticket—up from $11,000 on Monday and roughly even with Saturday—and now represents the last remaining possibility for a title clinch by the Knicks at home.

Even with the massive drop in demand for Game 4, the current pricing for the games at MSG exceeds the comparable figure of $3,800 for February’s Super Bowl LX. The Knicks’ loss on Monday, meanwhile, was their first since April 23 in what has been a torrid postseason run by the team.

As has been the case throughout the NBA Finals, games in San Antonio remain a relative bargain to anything happening in New York. Game 5 on Saturday at Frost Bank Center, a game now assured of happening, has a get-in resale price of about $1,700 per ticket. Pricing for a potential Game 7 in San Antonio, meanwhile, begins at around $4,400.
