The Milwaukee Bucks have become the hottest ticket in town which fans who want to attend Game 4 of the NBA Finals against the Phoenix Suns Wednesday night are going to pay a lot.

A courtside seat at Fiserv Forum under the basket, along the baseline, or along the sideline was listed at $14,890 on Ticketmast­er. On StubHub, the highest ticket price is roughly $14,600.

But those prices are likely to change several times leading up to the 8 p.m. tipoff.

For the average fan who's not Chance the Rapper, Gucci Mane or Sheryl Crow and just wants to have the bragging rights of saying they were “at the game” the cheapest tickets are for the standing room only section and cost about $512 each on Ticketmast­er

On StubHub, standing room only tickets are a little cheaper, at $450.

A less expensive option is to go to Fiserv Forum for Game 5 when the series moves back to Phoenix. The arena's indoor watch party costs $10 and fans can watch the television broadcast from a seat in the lower bowl. All concession­s are operating.

Bucks president Peter Feigin said when the team made the Finals, he didn't know what to expect when it came to ticket sales or prices.

“This has all been kind of like a very, very quick dream,” Feigin said.

Feigin added interest in the Milwaukee market and people wanting to be out and socialize after being cooped up during the pandemic may have boosted prices.

“It's a testament to the show that the NBA is and how important the NBA Finals is and what demand is like,” Feigin said.

“It's awesome to have a Finals in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, and to be getting premium pricing and interest like that.”
