Basketball stars have been just as stunned by the NBA’s call to suspend the 2020 season over coronavirus concerns as the fans.
“The NBA will use this hiatus to determine next steps for moving forward in regard to the coronavirus pandemic,” the league said in a statement. It was also revealed that a Utah Jazz player, believed to be Rudy Robert, has tested positive for the coronavirus. His Jazz teammate Donovan Mitchell was also reported to have tested positive for COVID-19, ESPN reported. The team confirmed in a statement that two players have the coronavirus.
Current and former NBA players such as LeBron James and Stephen Curry have been reacting to the news on Twitter TWTR, -14.44%, with King James joking, “Man we canceling sporting events, school, office work, etc etc. What we really need to cancel is 2020!”
