NBA adjusts Warriors, Bucks, Raptors schedules in response to Los Angeles fires
Yesterday at 09:41 PM
The Warriors schedule was tweaked as the NBA works around the Los Angeles fires.
The NBA announced the rescheduling of two Golden State Warriors home games as they deal with the domino-effects of scheduling issues stemming from the Los Angeles fires. The Warriors will now host the Milwaukee Bucks on March 18th at 7:00 pm Pacific and the Toronto Raptors on March 20th at 7:00 pm Pacific.
The NBA rescheduled two Los Angeles Lakers games during the worst of the fires, which destroyed thousands of homes throughout Southern California. Once the league rescheduled those games, it forced other moves to be made to keep each team at a balanced 82-game schedule without delaying the postseason.
The Warriors were originally slated to host the Raptors and Bucks on a home back-to-back on March 19th and 20th. Now, the Dubs will get to enjoy a day off between the matchup. However, the adjustment will create a different back-to-back in the schedule since they will play their originally scheduled home game on March 17th against the Denver Nuggets.
