Josh Barr of the Washington Post reports: A massive snowstorm that is pounding the northeast has caused an NBA game to be postponed.

That game is tonight's game between the Washington Wizards and Toronto Raptors at MCI Center.

The game has been rescheduled for March 4 at 7 p.m. Because the game was to be played on Michael Jordan's 40th birthday and broadcast by ESPN, no decision was made until after 6 p.m. yesterday. But with the severe weather restricting travel and the Raptors still in Toronto after their 99-97 victory over the Magic, the league announced the postponement.
