Kampante ang mga karagdagang NBA players na dinapuan kamakailan ng coronavirus na makakapaglaro sila sa oras na magpatuloy nang muli ang 2019-20 season sa susunod na buwan.
Ayon kay Sacramento Kings forward Jabari Parker, maganda raw ang usad ng kanyang recovery matapos sumailalim sa self-isolation sa Chicago.
“Several days ago I tested positive for COVID-19 and immediately self-isolated in Chicago which is where I remain,” wika ni Parker. “I am progressing in my recovery and feeling well. I look forward to joining my teammates in Orlando as we return to the court for the resumption of the NBA season.”
Ganito rin ang pahayag ni Indiana Pacers guard Malcolm Brogdon, at balak nito na sumama sa kanyang mga teammates sa Orlando sa oras na gumaling na ito mula sa nakahahawang virus.
“I recently tested positive for the COVID virus and am currently in quarantine,” pahayag ni Brogdon. “I’m doing well, feeling well and progressing well. I plan to join my teammates in Orlando for the resumption of the NBA season and playoffs.”
Maliban kina Parker at Brogdon, nagpositibo rin sa COVID-19 ang isa pang miyembro ng Sacramento na si Buddy Hield.
Una na ring lumabas ang ulat na nahawaan ng deadly infection si Denver Nuggets big man Nikola Jokic, na kasalukuyang naka-quarantine sa kanyang home country na Serbia.
