An NBA Summer League game between the New Orleans Pelicans and New York Knicks has been delayed due to an earthquake.

The scoreboard and speakers at Thomas and Mack Center were swaying back and forth in the aftermath of the earthquake, hence the suspension of the game.

The U.S. Geological Survey reported that it was a registered 7.1 magnitude earthquake in Southern California.

The San Diego Padres and Los Angeles Dodgers, who squared off at Dodger Stadium on Friday night, played through the tremors.
