CLEVELAND (AP) -- The start of the Cleveland Cavaliers' Monday night game against the Utah Jazz has been delayed while one of the basketball hoops and stanchion is replaced.

The scheduled 7:10 p.m. tip was delayed while Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse technicians attempted to level the rim that Utah warmed up on. When they were unable to do so, the decision was made to replace the entire apparatus.
