Knicks stuck in Minnesota due to snow storm in N.Y.


Posted Feb 8, 2013 8:22 PM

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) -- The New York Knicks are stuck in Minnesota thanks to the massive snow storm that is pelting the New York-to-Boston corridor.

The Knicks were in Minnesota to play the Timberwolves on Friday night. They initially planned to fly home after the game, but coach Mike Woodson says that flight has been postponed. The team will stay in Minnesota overnight and try to get home on Saturday.

The Knicks are scheduled to play the Los Angeles Clippers at Madison Square Garden on Sunday.

Woodson says the team plans to get up on Saturday morning and go over scouting for the Clippers at the hotel before trying to leave for New York.

Forecasters are estimating 1 to 3 feet of snow will hit the northeast this weekend.
