The world famous LA Lakers are travelling to the UK to take on the Minnesota Timberwolves in NBA match at the London O2 Arena on 4th October.

Basketball fans in this country will get a first-hand look at one of the modern greats of the game, Kobe Bryant, as he showcases his skills on British soil for the first time in the LA Lakers v Minnesota Timberwolves clash.

Due to his presence, together with a host of other NBA stars, NBA Europe tickets have been extremely popular amongst the paying public with NBA courtside tickets currently on sale at eye-watering prices.

GetMeIn are, at present, the only vendor supplying these courtside tickets with three price ranges on offer. Prices rise from £3298 up to £4399 and such is the demand that they only have a pair of tickets left in each bracket.

It remains to be seen whether more courtside tickets will be made available by GetMeIn or other ticket vendors such as Seatwave or Viagogo but with fans obviously willing to part with substantial sums for such premium seats, you can expect to have to dig deep to see your heroes in action.
