I'm sure they have vague plans for this sort of thing on some level - covid naturall required them to go above and beyond in terms of thinking about contingencies - and the plan for multiple game cancellations was to add an extra week to the regular season and push the playoffs back a week.
As this is only one game and I'm sure pushing everything back is not ideal, they're in a fuzzier place. But it's not like everything is completely cookie cutter in this situation as it relates to the teams, the relevant seedings, and time of the season, etc.
