If you’re hoping to catch the New York Knicks and Boston Celtics battle it out in the Eastern Conference Semifinals live at Madison Square Garden in New York City this Saturday afternoon, be prepared to drop a lot of serious cash. 

Ticket prices for Game 3 are reaching jaw-dropping levels. Currently, the cheapest ticket for the game is $704, while courtside seats are selling at $54,541. The average ticket price is almost $1000. 

Some are comparing those courtside prices to the salaries of WNBA stars Caitlin Clark from the Indiana Fever and Angel Reese from the Chicago Sky. 

According to reports, Clark's salary for the 2025 season is a little over $78,000, while Reese will be making $74,909
