LATEST CORONAVIRUS UPDATES FROM NJ.COM

The Nets announced Tuesday that four players tested positive for the coronavirus. The Athletic reported one of the four was Durant.

The Nets were in Los Angeles eight days ago to play the Lakers. Durant, who’s recovering from a torn Achilles tendon, did not play. But he did make the trip out west. After the game, TMZ reports Durant “kicked it with Drake at Nice Guy in West Hollywood.”

Drake even posted a photo of him with Durant on Instagram.

Following Tuesday’s disclosure by the Nets, TMZ reports Drake posted a “video from the basketball court in his Toronto mansion. He said, ‘My life for the next however long.’ Makes it sound like he’s self-quarantining ... perhaps out of an abundance of safety?”

ESPN reports the Lakers “will be tested Wednesday after learning of the Nets’ positive tests ... The Lakers were the last opponents of the Nets before games were suspended.”

The Nets’ announcement raises to seven the number of current NBA players diagnosed with the coronavirus: Utah Jazz center Rudy Gobert, Jazz teammate Donovan Mitchell, Detroit Pistons forward Christian Wood, and the four members of the Nets.

Also on Tuesday, the Ottawa Senators announced the first NHL player had been diagnosed with COVID-19.

The New York Post reports the Nets could be to blame for the Ottawa Senators’ player contracting the coronavirus.

The Senators played the Los Angeles Kings at the Staples Center on March 11 — one day after the Nets played the Lakers at the same arena. The hockey website, The Fourth Period, reported that the Senators used the same visitors locker room as the Nets.

The Lakers are in self-quarantine and will be tested for COVID-19.

Two baseball players have tested positive and both are minor leaguers for the New York Yankees.
