Game 3 of the NBA Finals between the New York Knicks and the San Antonio Spurs will be played on Tuesday night. The Knicks lead 2–0 in the series and can secure the franchise's first NBA title since 1973 if they win the two remaining home games.

Tickets to games at Madison Square Garden have been expensive in the past, but the chance to see the Knicks win the championship on home soil has driven prices to historic levels. According to Fox News, the cheapest tickets cost around $10,000, about 94,000 kronor.

One of those who will be in attendance is U.S. President Donald Trump, who is expected to become the first sitting U.S. president to attend an NBA Finals game.
