NBA Preseason tickets — everything you need to know

How much are NBA Preseason tickets?

NBA Preseason tickets currently start from $3 — the lowest price listed on this schedule. Prices vary by opponent, venue and seat location, and they move in real time with demand, so the same seat can cost more closer to the game than it does today.

How do I find cheap NBA Preseason tickets?

The cheapest NBA Preseason ticket on sale right now is $3 for NBA Preseason: Miami Heat vs. Brooklyn Nets on Wed, Oct 14 at 7:30 PM. A few things reliably bring the price down:

  • Compare the dates on the schedule — right now the median get-in is $19 for Monday–Thursday games and $19 for Friday–Sunday games, and less-hyped opponents usually sit at the low end.
  • Look at upper-tier seats against the lower bowl — the view is frequently better than the price suggests.
  • Buy as a smaller group; pairs and singles are easier to fill than blocks of four or more.
  • Check back as the date approaches — resale prices can drop in the final days when sellers adjust inventory.

Is it better to buy NBA Preseason tickets in advance or last minute?

Buying in advance gives you the widest choice of sections and makes it easier to seat a group together, and marquee opponents tend to climb as they sell down. Last-minute can bring real deals when sellers cut prices to clear seats, but popular games can also sell out — if you need specific seats, book early; if you are flexible, watching prices in the final week can pay off.

How do I buy NBA Preseason tickets on TheTicketers?

  1. Pick a game from the NBA Preseason schedule above — the table shows each date with its venue and the lowest price currently listed.
  2. Open the interactive seat map and choose a section. Listings show the exact seat location and quantity before you commit.
  3. Select how many tickets you need. Prices update live, and all mandatory fees are shown before you pay.
  4. Enter your email and complete secure checkout. Tickets are delivered electronically to that address.

Will NBA Preseason tickets bought together be seated together?

Yes, unless the listing explicitly says otherwise. Seats within a single listing are sold as a block, so buying two or four in one transaction keeps them together.

  • Seat numbers occasionally look non-sequential (odd/even) while still being physically adjacent — that is normal in many venues.
  • If a listing splits across an aisle or a row, the seller states it in the listing notes.
  • To be certain, buy your full quantity in one listing rather than combining two separate ones.
