The Jackson Wildcats were supposed to play their first home game in team history on Friday night. It was canceled because the Mississippi Coliseum evicted the team. Whether they ever play in Jackson is subject to question. As Doctor S said last week, the USBL schedule is subject to change. Two of the league’s teams, Boston/New Jersey and Long Island folded before the season began.

The Clarion-Ledger reports the Wildcats will play Saturday’s and Sunday’s games at Mississippi Basketball & Athletics, 2240 Westbrook Road in Jackson.
