Utah Jazz guard Donovan Mitchell has tested positive for coronavirus, according to ESPN. It comes a day after teammate Rudy Gobert also tested positive and the NBA suspended its regular season.
Apparently Gobert had been careless in the locker room while touching other players and their belongings.
In an act of irony Gobert was seen touching reporters’ microphones and recording devices, mocking the NBA’s recently implemented social distancing measures. The video of him touching everything is below via a rep
