The NBA has rescheduled the Spurs-Lakers game for Monday night after postponing it on Saturday due to wildfires in Los Angeles.
LOS ANGELES - The NBA has informed the Spurs their game against the Lakers on Monday night at Crypto.com Arena will go on as scheduled, a team spokesman said. The status of the game was uncertain after the league postponed the Spurs - Lakers game on Saturday night due to the ongoing wildfires that have destroyed more than 10,000 structures and killed at least 13 people. The Spurs finished practice Sunday morning at Crypto.com Arena not knowing whether they would be playing Monday night.
But word came down from the league shortly after the workout ended that the game was a go. The NBA postponed the Spurs-Lakers game and the Clippers-Hornets game scheduled for Saturday night. In a statement, the league said it wanted to 'ensure that no resources will be diverted from the wildfire response efforts.' The NBA continues to monitor the situation in LA, but as of Sunday afternoon the game on Monday was scheduled to be played. Spurs guard Devin Vassell said the team's focus had been good during the two practices it held this weekend. 'It's definitely been there,' he said. 'With this little bit of free time, we've been able to focus on our crafts and do what we need to do. Just trying to get better each day and that's what we've been doing.' The Spurs, who have lost three in a row, have not played since losing at Milwaukee on Wednesday night
