January 4, 2016

This week's top NBA games will all be played in the Golden State, as the Los Angeles Lakers and Sacramento Kings each set to host a pair of most expensive games through the weekend. Both teams will welcome the Golden State Warriors and will play each other in Sacramento on Thursday night.

Below are the top-priced games of the week, according to TicketIQ:

1/05/16 Golden State Warriors at Los Angeles Lakers | Avg. Price: $430.50 | Get-in: $115

The Warriors will look to rain on Kobe Bryant's farewell parade on Tuesday night when they play in Staples Center. At 31-2 the Warriors still possess the best record in the NBA and will look to continue their winning ways with a trip down to Los Angeles. The average price for Los Angeles Lakers tickets against the Golden State Warriors this week is $430.50 and the cheapest ticket available is $115.

1/09/16 Golden State Warriors at Sacramento Kings | Avg. Price: $373.17 | Get-in: $118

Following a Friday night battle with the Portland Trail Blazers the Warriors will travel to Sacramento to take on the Kings on Saturday. It will likely result in yet another loss for the struggling Kings, who have put together a rather unforgettable season at just 13-20. Sacramento Kings tickets against the Golden State Warriors average $373.13 and the get-in price is $118.

San Antonio Spurs v Golden State Warriors

1/08/16 Oklahoma City Thunder at Los Angeles Lakers | Avg. Price: $326.27 | Get-in: $85

Friday night will showcase a 2012 Conference Finals rematch between the Oklahoma City Thunder and Los Angeles Lakers at Staples Center. Factor in superstars Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook to Bryant's already-pricey farewell tour and ticket prices will reach even greater heights on the secondary market. Lakers vs Thunder tickets on TicketIQ currently average $326.27 and the get-in price is $85.

1/07/16 Los Angeles Lakers at Sacramento Kings | Avg. Price: $277.48 | Get-in: $97

Rounding out this week's top games is a Thursday night game between the Lakers and Kings at Sleep Train Arena in Sacramento. While neither team will likely make the playoffs come April, Bryant's final visit to Sacramento is generating big resale ticket demand. Kings vs Lakers tickets own a secondary market average of $277.48 and a $97 get-in price.
