SALT LAKE CITY — On Wednesday, the NBA and Players Association once again announced that there have been zero positive COVID-19 tests returned from players in the bubble.

Major League Baseball’s truncated schedule has already been chaotic with multiple outbreaks among teams, and as the NFL readies for its fanless season, following MLB’s example in including travel and allowing players to go home after practices and games, coaches and players who have tested positive are unsure about the kind of success possible without a bubble.
