The Heat–Bulls game that was postponed on Jan. 8 has been rescheduled for Jan. 29 at 8 p.m. ET, NBA Communications tweets. Additionally, the Chicago at Miami game, previously scheduled for Jan. 30, has been rescheduled to Jan. 31 at 8 p.m. ET.
The Jan. 8 game was called off due to moisture on the court at the United Center. The game was delayed and eventually postponed after several players noticed slick spots on the court during warmups. The NHL’s Chicago Blackhawks, who also compete at the United Center, played the previous night and unseasonably warm (mid-50s Fahrenheit) and rainy conditions in Chicago the next day led to the excess moisture on the court.
The Heat and Bulls will now in fact play three consecutive games against each other. Chicago was already scheduled to visit Miami for a Feb. 1 contest, Anthony Chiang of the Miam Herald tweets.
Both clubs will also play on Jan. 28, so each team will wind up taking the court for four games in five nights, K.C. Johnson of the Chicago Sports Network notes (Twitter link). Chicago has a road game against the Pacers on the 28th, while Miami will host the Magic on that night.
