Are NBA season tickets worth it? For the 2026–27 season, the honest answer is: only if you will use (or resell) most of the home schedule. A full plan locks you into every home game; single-game resale lets you buy only the nights you want, at whatever the market charges that week. This guide walks through the math, then shows how it plays out for the Denver Nuggets and five other teams.
BuyTickets.com is an independent ticket resale marketplace since 1999 (Denver-based) — not the official box office. Checkout is all-in before you pay, with a 100% ticket guarantee. Prices show the all-in total, including fees, before you pay. Delivery timing is listed on each offer.
Season tickets vs single-game resale
- Season tickets (team plan): sold by the team. You commit to every regular-season home game, usually with perks such as playoff priority, a fixed seat and member events. Prices, deposits and payment plans are set by each team — check the team’s official season-ticket page for the current figures.
- Partial plans: many teams sell smaller packs (for example, a set of weekend or marquee games). Fewer games, fewer perks.
- Single-game resale (BuyTickets.com): pick the exact night and section, compare the all-in total and buy only what you’ll use. No commitment, no playoff priority.
A simple worth-it test
- Take the team’s official per-seat season price and divide by the number of home games to get a per-game cost.
- Count the games you’ll actually attend. If you’ll miss a third of them, your real cost per game rises by half unless you resell the rest.
- Compare that number with all-in resale totals for the same section on the nights you want. Marquee opponents and weekends usually price higher; weeknights against non-contenders often lower.
- Put a value on the perks — playoff priority matters most for a contender.
If your per-game plan cost beats resale for the games you’d really attend, and you value the perks, season tickets can make sense. If not, buying single games is usually the cheaper and more flexible path.
