It was a chilly surprise for basketball fans as Winter Storm Enzo left a record snowfall in southern states. The NBA had to postpone the Milwaukee Bucks vs. New Orleans Pelicans game because New Orleans wasn't ready for snow. The city usually has warm weather, so clearing big snow piles isn't something they're used to. LSU's women's basketball team had to stay put in Baton Rouge due to flight issues, causing their game against South Carolina to be moved to Friday. The Sun Belt Conference also rescheduled four men's games due to unsafe travel conditions.

The Bucks tried to outsmart the weather by arriving early, but roads and highways stayed closed. Even the airport canceled flights, making it tough for the Bucks to travel to Miami for their next game. The NBA did not announce when the Bucks-Pelicans game would be made up. It's like Mother Nature interrupted the game schedule, and everyone had to wait for a thaw.

Schools and businesses also closed due to the snow, adding to the delayed routine. The storm continued to spread freezing rain and sleet to other states like Florida and Georgia, keeping everyone on their toes.
