Good morning, Chicago.

Tuesday’s matchup between the Bulls and Clippers was one of eight games the NBA rescheduled due to the Southern California wildfires.

The Bulls originally were scheduled to play the Clippers at Intuit Dome on Tuesday night. However, the game will now take place Monday with a 9:30 p.m. CT tipoff. It creates another road back-to-back for the Bulls, who play the Trail Blazers on Sunday in Portland.

Monday’s rescheduled game will overlap with the College Football Playoff national championship game between Notre Dame and Ohio State, which will kick off at 6:30 p.m.
