The Los Angeles Lakers and the Golden State Warriors are two of the most storied franchises in NBA history. But despite their long and rich histories, the Lakers and the Warriors have rarely met in the postseason. In fact, they have only faced each other six times in the playoffs, with the last time being in 1991. The Lakers have won five of those series, with the Warriors’ lone victory coming in 1967. However, this year could be different, as both teams feature two of the best players in the league: LeBron James for the Lakers and Stephen Curry for the Warriors.

As expected, the demand for tickets to watch the Lakers-Warriors playoff series is sky-high. According to TickPick, an online ticket marketplace, the series is currently the most expensive NBA playoff ticket on record outside of an NBA Finals matchup.

The overall average purchase price for the series is a staggering $726, with the average “get-in” price for Games 1 through 7 being $446. Currently, Game 6 is set at the highest get-in price of $577, while the lowest is Game 1 at $398.

The cheapest tickets available for Game 1 at Chase Center are in the nosebleed section and cost $389 each. For a better view, $829 for a seat in the middle row. And for courtside seats, a minimum of $10,436 and a maximum of $13,656 per ticket. The prices are even higher for Game 3 at Crypto.com Arena. The nosebleed seats start at $459. The middle row seats range from $1007 to $2733, while the courtside seats are a whopping $27,702 to $58,525 each.
