hi all, im from the uk and im in new york for the 1st week of December. i want to go to the kings game on the 4th and was wondering whats the best way to get tickets. there is some on 3rd party sites but m a bit dubious over using them. ive used stubhub over here for football (soccer...) but always end up paying over the odds. shall i buy off there or wait until their officially released.

whats the average price?
the tickets i was looking at are block 201 row 4 $98 each

thanks in advance for any advice

You'll definitely pay over the odds on stubhub. Single game tickets aren't yet available on the Knicks' own website, or on Ticketmaster. Apparently they go on sale in Sept: http://www.ticketmaster.com/sacramento-kings-vs-new-york-knicks-sacramento-california-12-09-2016/event/1C00510A3D056887?artistid=806010&majorcatid=10004&minorcatid=7

I'd give that a go before trying stubhub etc..

I would suggest you still use Stubhub and buy them right before the game, as most sellers drop the price before tip off so the tickets don't expire. Stunhub really forces the seller to inflate the price bc of what they take off the top, but you could still get tix below, sometimes way below, face value.

I'd also recommend looking more toward mid-court since tix are 98 (Section 209/210; 220/221; 203/204; 227/228 - 98 is face value there) and you get a better view of the entire court.

Good luck

Thanks for the replies. I think I'll keep an eye on ticketmaster and try to get some from there. I'm only in new York for 5 days so won't get a chance to get to another game

The safest way to buy second hand tickets online is the Ticket Master Ticket Exchange... it's the official way for season ticket holders to unload the tickets they don't want. It's a partnership between Ticket Master, the NBA, and the teams
