Former Charlotte Hornets’ forward tests positive for COVID-19

For the past three days, the Charlotte Hornets have remained vigilant during this time of panic throughout the league. While no players on the team have tested positive for the virus, one Hornet has.

Before Saturday, the NBA was only aware of two Utah Jazz players that had COVID-19. However, on Saturday, Shams Charania of The Athletic, reported that former Hornets forward, Christian Wood, tested positive for COVID-19.

Wood had one of the best games of his career last Saturday night for the Detroit Pistons. In this game, he primarily played against Rudy Gobert, and this could be how Wood contracted the virus.
