$26 to $1,700: Ticket prices to Sacramento Kings upcoming home games at Golden 1 Center

The Sacramento Kings are once again playing ball on their home court after a six-game away stint.

If you want to root for your favorite team at downtown Sacramento’s Golden 1 Center — especially after their triumphant at-home win against the Golden State Warriors —there’s still time to secure a seat in the arena. Beware: Some tickets are selling fast.

On Tuesday night, the Kings rose from a 24-point deficit to defeat their Northern California nemesis, lighting the purple beam for the 10th time this season.

The Kings won by one point in the last seven seconds of the game thanks to Kings guard Malik Monk, securing a spot in next week’s quarterfinals, part of the new NBA in-season tournament.

    Sacramento Kings ticket exchange Reddit forum

    The r/Kings TicketExchange Reddit forum, created in 2016, is regularly used by Kings fans to buy and sell game tickets.

    Full disclosure: This is one of the cheapest ways to buy tickets — also the riskiest.

    “We are not responsible for any transactions made via this subreddit. We are not responsible for any transactions that resulted in a loss of money or tickets. Beware of new accounts and do your own due diligence. Use this subreddit at your own risk,”the Reddit user wrote on its forum Sunday when announcing a Kings versus Pelicans game in January.

    The forum has roughly 2,100 members and has a list of “top trusted sellers.”

    Golden 1 Center Box Office

    Golden 1 Center’s box office at 500 David J Stern Walk sells Kings tickets at prices similar to Ticketmaster, without the additional fees.

    The box office is open 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday and noon to showtime during weekend events.

    The catch: Tickets must be purchased in person at the box office.

    The box office can be reached at 916-701-5401 during business hours.
