## Knicks suspend ticket sales
The Knicks suspended individual ticket sales after an internal pricing mistake led to eye-popping prices including a $1,000-plus minimum for the season opener.
## New prices 12% above last year
The team plans to restart sales early next week with prices 12% above last season’s prices, the same increase for season-ticket holders.
## Refunds for affected fans
Fans who already purchased individual tickets will receive refunds for the difference to the roughly 12% increase in prices.
## MSG spokesperson statement
An MSG spokesperson said they paused sales due to a pricing mistake and will roll back to last year’s prices plus a 12% average increase.
## Pricing error was first-time mistake
A source close to the situation said the pricing error was a first-time mistake for MSG and never intended to price gouge fans after a championship season.
## Knicks advance to playoffs
Under owner James Dolan, the Garden’s policy was to not raise prices if the team failed to qualify for the postseason, but upticks have become common since Jalen Brunson’s arrival.
## Key takeaway

Knicks paused individual ticket sales after mistakenly listing prices over $1,000 for season opener, with refunds for affected fans and new prices 12% above last year's.
