With the COVID-19 pandemic continuing to impact the United States, NBA personnel and fans continue to look to healthcare professionals for advice and information.
To that end, CloseUp360’s “Hoopers Meet Heroes” content series has provided a unique opportunity for players to connect with healthcare professionals that are working on the frontlines against COVID-19.
For the Nuggets’ Monte Morris, that meant connecting with Dr. Richard Zane, the chief innovation officer at UCHealth.
The two went back and forth on the current situation in Denver regarding COVID-19. Dr. Zane revealed that although he believes COVID-19 has reached a "plateau", Denver is at a "crucial juncture," at which social distancing practices must continue or residents may be in trouble.
