The NBA has officially postponed Tuesday night’s Los Angeles Lakers-Los Angeles Clippers game at Staples Center in Los Angeles following the death of NBA superstar Kobe Bryant.
“The decision was made out of respect for the Lakers organization, which is deeply grieving the tragic loss of Lakers legend Kobe Bryant, his daughter Gianna and seven other people in a helicopter crash on Sunday,” the NBA said in a statement in announcing the move on Monday. “The game will be rescheduled at a later date.”
