The Sixers starting five are expected to rapidly drive up ticket prices. Though tickets are not officially for sale through the team, professional ticket brokers have listed speculative seats on platforms like Vivid Seats. Opening night seats for the Knicks game start at $2,000, and range up to $11,000. The cheapest tickets on the platform for the home opener with the Cavaliers are $654.
The Sixers feature a superstar starting five unlike anything put together in the league in years, and they will undoubtedly be at the center of national attention for the entire season. The stunning signing of LeBron on July 24 completed a starting five that also added Jaylen Brown in a separate shocking deal with the Boston Celtics on July 1.
