The NBA is on hiatus. Rudy Gobert tested positive for coronavirus just a week after he was in Madison Square Garden facing off against the New York Knicks. In fact, I was in the Utah Jazz locker room that night reporting on the game.
It was the 28th Knicks game I had covered this season, but I didn’t know at the time that it would probably be one of the last times I step foot in MSG this season. It’s easy to take the Garden for granted—especially when the Knicks are struggling like they are now.
