NBA Suspends Today’s Game Between Golden State Warriors and Denver Nuggets Amid Sudden Emergency
The NBA has officially suspended today’s highly anticipated matchup between the Golden State Warriors and the Denver Nuggets due to a sudden and unforeseen emergency, league officials announced Saturday afternoon.
The decision came just hours before tipoff at Chase Center, leaving fans and players stunned. In a brief statement, the NBA cited a “developing emergency situation” but did not elaborate further, stating only that the move was made “out of an abundance of caution and concern for the safety of all personnel involved.”
Both teams had completed morning shootarounds and were preparing for game-time when the announcement came down. Security presence around the arena was visibly increased, and attendees who had already arrived were asked to vacate the premises as a precaution.
Warriors head coach Steve Kerr told reporters, “We’re still gathering information ourselves. Our priority right now is the well-being of everyone — players, staff, and fans.”
The Denver Nuggets organization also released a short statement expressing their understanding of the league’s decision and support for ensuring safety above all.
The NBA has promised to provide more information as it becomes available and is expected to announce a rescheduled date for the game in the coming days.
Fans with tickets to tonight’s game are being advised to retain them, as they will be honored for the rescheduled matchup or refunded per team policy.
