With the Long Island Nets leading the Erie BayHawks 88-87 with 9:40 remaining in the fourth quarter Saturday night at Erie Insurance Arena, officials suspended play due to water dripping onto the court.
The BayHawks announced Saturday night the game would be rescheduled at a later date, but that no decision had been made on that date.
According to Victor Fernandes of the Erie Times-News, the problem stemmed from blowing snow outside the arena in Erie, Pa.

The suspension of play spoiled the night for the BayHawks, who were wearing special Martin Luther King Day uniforms in advance of Monday’s holiday.
