The Portland Trail Blazers will make up their December 23 game against the Brooklyn Nets on January 10.
The original date was postponed after a list of Nets players entered COVID protocols. Ironically, this was just prior to the Blazers’ own COVID troubles with more than half the team recently entering health and safety protocols.
The new date will result in the Brooklyn game being the second night of a home back-to-back for Portland with the Blazers already scheduled to host the Sacramento Kings on January 9.
The league has also altered the schedule to help the Nets with Brooklyn’s January 9 road game against San Antonio brought forward from 7.
