SACRAMENTO, Calif. — Buying tickets for the Sacramento Kings' playoff return against the Golden State Warriors might be a royal pain.
The cost to get into the building for the first round of the playoffs isn't exactly cheap. Among the three major ticket websites, the lowest cost is $404.
It was a little more than a year ago that Ticketmaster had Kings tickets for as low as $5. That was when the Kings squared off against the Detroit Pistons during the last season in January 2022.
A few months and a year later, the Kings are in the playoffs against the defending champions -- with a notably higher cost of admission. According to TickPick, a ticket website, the game is set to be the most expensive first round NBA playoff game on record.
Here's how the costs break down for the first round of the playoffs at the Golden 1 Center.
