Four Nets have tested positive for the coronavirus, team says.
3 of the 4 are currently not symptomatic.

Interesting how they managed to get tested despite not being symptomatic and the season has been suspended already, when people who are actually sick are unable to get tested. The NBA does have some major pull.
Any odd typos are because I suck at typing on an iPhone :D

They reportedly paid a private company like the Jazz Thunder did. I assume other teams doing the same.

To this point I bet if you gave everyone in the U.S a test, at least 1/4 would test positive. Most people probably aren’t showing symptoms...

Per Woj, the Nets paid a private company to conduct the tests.  I assume they tested all the players but not clear who else in the organization they tested.

That is highly unlikely.  1% is probably the upper-bound for currently infected (which is still over 3 million, compared to the mere thousands of confirmed tests.)

I doubt it is that high yet but it is much higher than the number of confirmed cases.  I expected plenty of people have caught it, had minimal symptoms and already recovered.

Looks like KD got it:

Wow.

So Gobert, Mitchell and now Durant.


If Corona get hold of a solid PG and maybe a 3-D wing, they might make The Finals.

Flat-earther Kyrie in the end will be the only one to survive!

80 million people? At that point everyone would have it... and maybe 3 million or so would be dead within a few weeks.

The virus also got Christian Wood from Detroit.

I gave you a TP for that brilliance. I'm hoping/assuming their recovery will be as smooth and Mitchell's.
