ATLANTA (AP) — The Atlanta Hawks are having hourly discussions with the NBA as they consider a possible postponement of Tuesday night’s game against the Milwaukee Bucks.

Ice and snow from a winter storm that hit north Georgia on Sunday night are making travel difficult around Atlanta. Portions of some roads are closed.

Hawks spokesman Arthur Triche says the game has not yet been postponed. One concern is the difficulty in having enough staff at Philips Arena to work the game.

The Hawks are scheduled to leave Atlanta on Tuesday night for a game at Toronto on Wednesday.

Meanwhile, the Atlanta Thrashers called off a planned practice Tuesday. The Atlanta Falcons, preparing for a playoff game against Green Bay, are conducting practice as planned.
