COVID is the biggest storyline in the NBA right now. Nearly every team is dealing with players and coaches entering health and safety protocols. The league is adapting the current protocols to deal with the developing situation.
ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski is reporting that the NBA is shortening quarantines to six days if the individual is no longer infectious.
The NBA and NBPA agreement comes at a time when players are testing positive and heading into quarantine at an unprecedented rate — 172 have entered Covid protocols in past two weeks, including a single-day high of 27 on Sunday.
