The Green Bay Phoenix men's basketball game on Saturday against Oakland will likely not take place as currently scheduled.
Their matchup against the Golden Grizzlies is on the calendar as a 6 p.m. tip at the Resch Center. An hour later, the Packers are now scheduled to take on the 49ers a block away from Lambeau Field.
Scott Venci of the Green Bay Press-Gazette tweeted on Sunday that head coach Will Ryan says the game would be moved if the game was played on Saturday that their matchup would not only go to a much earlier noon tip, but also to the Kress Events Center.
Note for GB men's basketball fans: If the Packers play on Saturday, which appears likely, the GB basketball game vs. Oakland at the Resch Center will move to noon at the Kress Center. Classy move by Will Ryan and the team to not overshadow the football game.

The Green Bay Athletics Department has made such concessions in the past, including a 2015 matchup against Minnesota Duluth to avoid a Packers/Vikings night game.
