The development comes on the heels of reports that Utah Jazz player Rudy Gobert tested positive for coronavirus, just before their game against the Oklahoma City Thunder was called off.

With a one-liner of a tweet, journalist Bill Simmons summed up in a nutshell the stunning turn of events.
"Single craziest day in NBA history," the popular writer and broadcaster tweeted.
