The NBA has postponed the game between the Milwaukee Bucks and the New Orleans Pelicans due to a severe winter storm that deposited nearly a foot of snow in New Orleans. The storm created hazardous road conditions in a city unprepared for such weather, leading to widespread school and business closures. The Bucks, who arrived early to avoid travel disruptions, are uncertain about their next travel plans to Miami. Many local roads remain icy, and commercial flights from the local airport are ground to a halt due to the conditions.
The NBA has postponed Wednesday night's game in New Orleans between the Milwaukee Bucks and the Pelicans after a historic winter storm dumped about a foot of snow in the Big Easy.
Tuesday's winter storm made road travel treacherous in a subtropical city with minimal snow-clearing equipment on hand.
The Milwaukee Bucks beat the weather by arriving Monday, a day earlier than usual, in the event that road conditions became safe enough to hold the game at the Smoothie King Center.
Temperatures remained in the 30s on Wednesday, many main highways in the metro areas were closed by authorities and surface roads throughout town remained coated in ice.
