NBA Releases Guidelines Regarding Positive Coronavirus Tests During Season

The NBA was able to successfully shut out the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic during the restart and playoffs while within the confines of the Walt Disney World bubble.

They were commended by fans and health experts throughout the United States, but will now have to face potential positive tests as the next season begins. With under one month until the beginning of the 2020-21 season, the league released a hefty number of protocols regarding health and safety while playing not in a bubble.

The NBA must be prepared for what happens when positive tests come up, as they are far more likely outside of a bubble.
