What happened: Games 3 and 4 of the Valkyries-Dream Finals will be played at State Farm Arena in Atlanta. The Oct. 24 Hawks home opener against Houston moves to 8:30 p.m. to accommodate the schedule.

Why it matters: Sharing State Farm Arena forces the NBA club to slide opening night to a late tip. The adjustment preserves home dates for a Finals series featuring the Valkyries in the middle games.

What to watch: Game dates and tip times for the two Atlanta Finals games come next.
