Three tip-off times for the Phoenix Suns have been pushed back an hour, the NBA announced on Thursday.

One of those changes includes Sunday’s home game against the Orlando Magic that will move from a 6 p.m. start to a 7 p.m. tip-off.

The other two games are a road outing in Memphis against the Grizzlies on Feb. 20 and a Feb. 28 meeting in Minnesota with the Timberwolves. Both of those contests were also down for a 6 p.m. start time that will now begin at 7 p.m.

The game hosting the Magic on Sunday will be the Suns’ fourth with fans that bought tickets. That number is capped at 1,500 until Tuesday when it will increase to 3,000.

The Suns are off to a 15-9 start, coming out victorious in seven of their last eight games. They are currently fourth in the Western Conference standings.

Phoenix’s next game is on Saturday at home versus the Philadelphia 76ers, a matchup beginning at 1 p.m. you can hear on 98.7 FM Arizona’s Sports Station.
