Chicago Bulls-Miami Heat Deadline Game Story

In this assignment, I was tasked with writing a short story on the postponed Chicago Bulls-Miami Heat game on January 8, 2026, at the United Center in Chicago. The assignment presented me with a unique situation of not only having to file my completed story on a 45-minute deadline, but also the fact that the game never happened due to condensation on the court. I covered this event in-person, and the story received positive feedback from my professor, renowned ESPN feature writer Wayne Drehs.
