Charles Barkley says that he tested negative for the coronavirus after he did not feel well and decided to self-quarantine on March 12.

“I’ve received my COVID-19 test results this morning and they are negative," Barkley said, according to the Los Angeles Times' Arash Markazi. "I’d like to thank everyone for reaching out and expressing your concern and support. You all be safe and please take the necessary actions to help ensure your well-being.”

Barkley's self-quarantine was suggested as a precaution by his colleagues at Turner Sports and a few doctors.
