Suns-Hawks game postponed

It becomes the seventh NBA game this season to be postponed due to health and safety protocols.

Wednesday’s game between the Atlanta Hawks and Phoenix Suns has been postponed, the NBA announced.

Contact tracing with Phoenix players is a factor because the Suns played the Washington Wizards on Monday, the league said. The Wizards have had positive COVID-19 tests within their roster, sources told ESPN, and also had their game for Wednesday postponed.
