How much do Suns vs. Thunder Playoff tickets cost?

Following the Thunder's massive Game 1 victory, ticket demand in Oklahoma City remains at an all-time high as fans flock to see the reigning champions. However, prices for this matchup remain some of the most accessible for a 1-seed opener.

• Game 2 (Oklahoma City): Secondary market prices on platforms like SeatGeek and Vivid Seats currently show "get-in" prices starting around $88. Mid-level seating in the 100-level is generally trending between $220 and $380.
• Game 3 (Phoenix): As the series heads to the newly renamed Mortgage Matchup Center (formerly Footprint Center) for Game 3, entry-level seats are currently listed as low as $87, making it one of the most affordable playoff venues in the West this week.
• Courtside Seats: Premium floor seats at the Paycom Center for Game 2 are currently listed upwards of $1,100, while some "VIP Courtside" options are clearing $2,800.

Factors that influence cost include:

• The "SGA" Factor: Shai Gilgeous-Alexander’s MVP-caliber season has driven massive national interest. His ability to control the game is the primary draw for fans in OKC.
• Suns Injury Woes: With multiple key Suns players in "soft boots" or dealing with calf issues, the perceived lack of competitiveness in the series has kept get-in prices lower than high-stakes matchups like Knicks-Hawks.
