Ouch... makes me wonder what is going to happen to MLB since the season opener is right around the corner!!
WOW.
WOW.
Looks like some teams including the Celtics were told to self-quarantine
Celtics reportedly among teams told to self-quarantine
So, based on that info, I'd say the NBA probably made the right decision, since the disease is spreading to the players, if its hitting the players, its most likely spreading to the fans

Gobert touched the mics, so I guess he could've continued that behavior in the locker room. Sad.
I’m hearing some reports that the NBA season might be resumed on June 1, which would already put the qualifying teams into the playoffs, which leads me to believe they may just continue to ‘play out’ the season if that’s the situation.
Now, if things continue to improve, then I could see Adam silver reinstating the season much earlier, but at this point, I’d say that’s unlikely.
Speaking of Adam silver, can we just take a second to recognize how brilliant of a man he is, and amount of heat he has taken, but doing the ‘standup thing’ for what’s right for the league. I’m glad he’s not only looking at the dollar amount the NBA is losing, but in the interest of the fans/players protection.

Yes, kudos to Adam Silver! The NBA shutting down was the biggest domino to fall early on, causing that chain reaction.

Durant among four Nets to test positive for virus
Kevin Durant is among four Nets players to have tested positive for the coronavirus, ESPN confirmed. One player is exhibiting symptoms, and the other three are asymptomatic, the team announced Tuesday.
The NBA season is done. And that includes the playoffs. It’s not even so much of the ‘spread amongst players’, it’s really about the fans moving forward for such a large audience In regards to containment, not to mention, there’s been plenty of discussion amongst analyst(s) where is the NBA season even pick up from here if it were to be reinstated? The playoffs were slated to start within three weeks, and there are certain teams that are on the brink of making the playoffs, and how do you put those pieces together given the circumstances? There’s no doubt my mind at the end of the season is now.
