Kyle Dubas on the Toronto Maple Leafs’ progress defensively: “When our mindset is in the right spot and we are dialled in, we can really defend at a high level against [top] teams”

What was your evening like after the news of Rudy Gobert hit back on March 12?

Dubas: It was crazy, I guess, would be the best way to put it. You’ve got all of the players and staff reaching out and wondering what is going to happen. Gobert tested positive and as you are getting inundated with questions about how that is going to impact us, the NBA suspends the season and that only increases the curiosity and the questions about what is going to happen.

We had, of course, been following the entire situation from a medical perspective for a long time.
