The National Basketball League (NBL) has confirmed the postponement of a game scheduled for Saturday, January 10, 2026.
Game Details
The affected fixture was between the Cairns Taipans and the Brisbane Bullets, originally planned to take place at the Cairns Convention Centre.
Reason for Postponement
The postponement is attributed to the potential impact of a cyclone in the Cairns region. Cairns has been classified within a Warning Zone. Consequently, the Cairns Convention Centre initiated its Emergency Response Plan and closed the venue.
Decision-Making
The decision was made following consultations with local authorities and venue operators, with the safety of all participants and the wider community cited as the primary consideration.
Future Updates
The NBL is currently reviewing scheduling options for the postponed game and plans to issue further updates.
