This change affects nine teams, including the Los Angeles Lakers, Los Angeles Clippers, Atlanta Hawks, Charlotte Hornets, Houston Rockets, Chicago Bulls, Washington Wizards, Utah Jazz, and Portland Trail Blazers.

- The Jazz and Lakers will meet on February 10 instead of February 11. - The Wizards will play against the Clippers on January 23, which was originally scheduled for March 16. - The Wizards and Blazers will face off on March 17, moving from March 18. - The Clippers will play against the Jazz on February 13, moving from March 19. The exact date for the Lakers-Spurs game, which was supposed to be on January 11, is still unknown. Both the Lakers and Clippers returned to their home courts on Monday night.

He also mentioned that the Lakers have a strong connection with the city of Los Angeles, which is one of the reasons he wanted to coach there.
