Another factor involves an MLB team: the Brewers! If Cavs are forced to play back to back Friday in Atlanta and Saturday in Milwaukee, the Bucks may want to move up start time if there’s a World Series Game 7 to avoid conflict with Brewers. Unfair to Cavs if played night before.
Sources: best option for WNBA Game 6 is for Hawks to move Thursday’s Cavs matchup at State Farm Arena to Friday. It means W gets the arena Thursday night and Hawks play a back to back Saturday game in New Orleans and Cavs a back to back Saturday game in Milwaukee. Decision soon.
