The NBA has rescheduled nine games as a result of the postponements caused by the Los Angeles wildfires and inclement winter weather in Atlanta, the league announced Wednesday. Only three games were postponed initially, but moving those matchups caused a domino effect that impacted several other contests.

Nine teams were affected by the changes, and the LA Clippers’ schedule has the most movement with four games rescheduled. A meeting with the Charlotte Hornets slated for Jan. 11 will now be played on March 16. The Chicago Bulls were scheduled to visit the Clippers on Jan. 21 but the teams will now play on Jan. 20. A Wizards-Clippers game previously set on March 16 now moves to Jan. 23, and a Clippers-Jazz game that was originally scheduled on March 19 got moved to Feb. 13. It will be the last game before the All-Star break.

The Los Angeles Lakers’ schedule has two changes, with another incoming at a later date. A game against the Hornets was moved from Jan. 9 to Feb. 19 and a meeting with the Jazz on Feb. 11 was bumped to Feb. 10. A new date for a Spurs-Lakers matchup previously set for Jan. 11 in Los Angeles will be announced in the future.

Because the Atlanta Hawks couldn’t host the Houston Rockets on Jan. 11 due to snow and ice, their matchup moves to Jan. 28.

A Wizards-Jazz matchup scheduled for Jan. 23 and a Wizards-Trail Blazers game on March 18 also got shuffled to make other arrangements possible. The former will now take place on March 19, and the latter will move up a day to March 17.
