Hope you're ready for a late Sunday night!
The NBA has announced the tip-off for tonight's Spurs game against the Minnesota Timberwolves has been delayed due to an issue with the court. Originally set to start at 7:00 PM CT, tip-off will now be at 8:10 PM CT. According to the Star Tribune's Chris Haynes, an issue with the City Edition court was discovered during the Spurs' shoot-around and was replaced with their standard home court.

It's unclear what type of issue could have required the entire court to need replacing, but regardless, it has not been a great week for the Target Center staff. Back on December 21 in a game between the Timberwovles and Warriors, Golden State's Jonathan Kuminga managed to tear the net during some warm-up antics, and it took 30 minutes and multiple staffers to replace the net.
