The NBA announced its decision amid reports that players planned to boycott both the Thunder-Rockets and Lakers-Trail Blazers series.

It’s worth noting that players’ decision to boycott could be seen as violating the NBA collective bargaining agreement prohibiting strikes. What actions the NBA may take — if any — following the boycotts remain to be seen.

The NBA has three games scheduled for Thursday — Nuggets-Jazz, Celtics-Raptors and Clippers-Mavericks — that will likely be affected by the postponed games Wednesday.
