Madison Square Garden executive chairman and chief executive officer James Dolan has tested positive for coronavirus, joining 10 NBA players and a number of staffers from other teams who have been disclosed to have the fast-spreading virus.

The Knicks announced the news late Saturday night in a tweet, noting: “He has been in self-isolation and is experiencing little to no symptoms. He continues to oversee business operations.”

The team would not comment beyond issuing the statement. One source said that though Dolan was doing well, he had shown some symptoms, which prompted the test.
