Russell Westbrook tests positive for coronavirus

Rockets guard Russell Westbrook announced on Twitter today that he has tested positive for the coronavirus.

Westbrook is one of three Rockets (along with James Harden and Luc Mbah a Moute), that did not make the trip last week to the Orlando bubble.

There was speculation as to why Westbrook did not join the team last week, but this tweet from Russ confirms the reasoning behind his late arrival.

The team arrived Friday in the bubble and have already completed two practices.
