The NBA has officially announced that a second straight game for the Los Angeles Lakers has been postponed due to the ongoing wildfires across the city. The Lakers were scheduled to return to the basketball floor on Saturday at Crypto.com Arena, playing host to superstar Victor Wembanyama and the San Antonio Spurs, but that will be pushed to a later date.
The league announced the postponement on Friday night. The Los Angeles Clippers’ game against the Charlotte Hornets, whom the Lakers were initially supposed to face on Thursday at Crypto, was also postponed.
