Coronavirus in Oklahoma: Thunder following OSDH direction regarding COVID-19 testing

The Thunder is following the Oklahoma State Department of Health's directions and protocols on appropriate timing for testing for COVID-19, according to a team spokesperson.

The Thunder is also leaning in the OSDH to determine which staff and team members need to be tested.

The move comes after two Jazz players preliminarily tested for COVID-19, the disease caused by the novel coronavirus. The Thunder and Jazz were scheduled to play at Chesapeake Energy Arena on Wednesday, but the game was postponed and the NBA season was suspended until further notice.

Jazz center Rudy Gobert reportedly tested positive for COVID-19 just before tip-off.
