Yes, NBA players can be in quarantined multiple times in a season

Since a mid-January coronavirus outbreak, the Washington Wizards have played all of their games since Jan. 24 with no interruptions. That’s good news. However, that doesn’t mean that the team isn’t vulnerable to a second mass quarantine.
