Here’s how COVID-19 affected Boston Celtics guard Carsen Edwards:

Boston Celtics guard Carsen Edwards was inactive for four games earlier this month due to health and safety protocols, shortly after several other Celtics were ruled out.

On Wednesday, Edwards spoke to the media via Zoom for the first time since he returned to the lineup. He was asked if he had indeed tested positive for COVID-19, like many players who are out due to health and safety.

“I don’t know what I’m allowed to talk about,” Edwards said. “But I mean, I did test positive, and I had symptoms for a couple of days. But then after that, I was kind of just — I lost my taste and my smell, and then after that, I was quarantined.
