To better serve local supporters, the Pistons and the National Basketball Association limit ticket sales to customers residing in Michigan and select areas including Ohio, Indiana, and Ontario, Canada.

According to Ticketmaster.com, eligibility for purchasing tickets for playoff games at LCA will be determined by the billing address associated with the credit card used for the transaction.
Orders placed by customers with billing addresses outside the designated sales area will be canceled without notice, and those customers will receive a refund.

Aftermarket sites and resellers, on the other hand, are not obliged to those standards, as you can go on their sites and purchase as many tickets as you can afford.
For those fans who will be watching the game from the comfort of their homes, tip-off for Game 1 of the first round of the NBA Eastern Conference playoffs will be Saturday, April 19, 2025, at 6 p.m. inside Madison Square Garden.
