ESPN reported that the game has the second-highest list prices for an NBA Game 7 in the past five years at $960 per ticket. The only Game 7 to top Monday night's matchup in Oakland at Oracle Arena was the 2013 NBA Finals Game 7 between the Miami Heat and San Antonio Spurs at $1,346 per ticket.
The Warriors put the few remaining tickets on sale Sunday night, with prices ranging from $230 to $2,150, and they sold out in less than five minutes. Those prices did not include any floor seats, which were sold out.
StubHub told ESPN that its average sold ticket for Monday night's game was $824, with the cheapest seat at $359.
The Thunder will need to regroup after a crushing loss to the Warriors on Saturday night that forced a Game 7.
Klay Thompson scored a game-high 41 points -- setting the NBA playoff record with 11 3-pointers -- to rally the Warriors to a 108-101 victory on the road to hold off elimination.
