Rudy Gobert. Donovan Mitchell. Kevin Durant. And now Sean Payton.
They all tested positive for COVID-19. And when a celebrity gets swooped up by a pandemic, that is a headline, especially for sports publications (like this one) that have no actual sports to cover. But soon there will be so many names in sports, so many names in general, that we won’t be able to keep them straight. You will forget who had it and who didn’t; maybe Gobert’s name will endure in our consciousness because he was the first, but the rest will blend together.
