The Spurs’ Saturday recreation in opposition to the Hornets will begin sooner than initially scheduled, the league introduced. Because of the climate situations in Charlotte, the league has moved up the tip-off time from 2 p.m. CT to 11 a.m. CT.
The Nationwide Climate Service has positioned a winter storm warning affecting Charlotte, with heavy snow anticipated on Saturday. The intense climate situations which were affecting the East Coast have already resulted in rescheduled video games, so this isn’t essentially the most shocking information.
By transferring the matchup to earlier within the day, the expectation is that the Spurs ought to have a better time getting out of the town in time to return to San Antonio for the second recreation of a back-to-back in opposition to Orlando on Sunday, in response to The San Antonio Categorical-Information’ Jeff McDonald:
Early begins can typically have unpredictable outcomes, and the Hornets have been enjoying nicely recently, so it may very well be a tricky recreation for the Silver and Black. Fortuitously, they landed in Charlotte on Friday with sufficient time to have a exercise and might be nicely rested since they final performed on Wednesday in opposition to the Rockets.
The sport might be televised by KENS 5 and Prime Video.
