Nasa gitna ng laban ang Jazz at Oklahoma City Thunder nang ianunsiyo ng NBA na kanselado ang laro dahil sa positibong resulta kay Gobert.

“The NBA announced that a player on the Utah Jazz has preliminarily tested positive for COVID-19,” nakasaad sa kanilang pahayag.

“The NBA is suspending game play following the conclusion of tonight’s schedule of games until further notice. The NBA will use this hiatus to determine next steps for moving forward in regard to the coronavirus pandemic,” dagdag pa nito.

Marahil ito ay dahil sa hinawakan umano ni Gobert ang lahat ng mga mic at recorder na nakatutok sa kanya habang nasa media conference.
