Now there will be no games at all, at least for the time being. A person with knowledge of the situation said the Jazz player who tested positive was center Rudy Gobert. The person spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because neither the league nor the team confirmed the presumptive positive test.

What a bunch of overpaid pampered spoiled babies. This was all forced by the overrated Lebron James to prevent the Milwaukee Bucks from winning the championship. He knows his overrated Lakers have no chance of beating the Bucks in the best of 7. The NBA is a disgrace.

Good point. Watch how agendas and politics will further “panic” the people. This stampede is over the top and one day , hopefully, very soon, somebody will investigate who has an interest in destroying peoples’s lives.

Chick coming home to roost. NBA was kissing China during the Hong Kong protests and China is now thanking them.
