The Philadelphia 76ers vs. Charlotte Hornets game has been moved up to 3 p.m. on Monday due to the winter storm affecting the United States. This change was announced by the NBA on Sunday, with the original start time of 7 p.m. being pushed forward. The NBA also adjusted the start time of the Indiana Pacers-Atlanta Hawks game to 1:30 p.m. on the same day. The 76ers, who suffered a 112-109 loss to the New York Knicks on Saturday, will face the Hornets without key players Joel Embiid and Paul George, both sidelined by left knee injuries. The storm has already brought significant snowfall to Philadelphia, with 9.1 inches recorded by the National Weather Service, making it the city's largest snowstorm in a decade. The Lehigh Valley area, including Allentown, received about a foot of snow. As the storm subsides on Sunday night, temperatures are expected to plummet, with highs in the low 20s and overnight lows dropping to single digits and below zero for the next 7-10 days. This means the snow is likely to stick around for the remainder of the week, marking a bitter end to January and the beginning of February.
