Spanish basketball game off because of swine flu

Posted: Updated:

MADRID (AP) - Swine flu has forced the Spanish basketball league to postpone a game for the second time this season.

The league said Saturday that four players on the team Bizkaia Bilbao Basket were diagnosed with the H1N1 virus and several others were showing symptoms.

The club was to have played Lagun Aro GBC on Sunday. The game has not yet been rescheduled.

Last month, a league game was called off when at least seven players from one team were diagnosed with swine flu.
