The suspension of the remainder of the NBA season was announced after a member of the Utah Jazz tested positive for the Coronavirus. The announcement was made after NBA owners held a conference call to talk about the league’s response plans that didn’t produce a resolution, and quickly after a game between the Jazz and Oklahoma City Thunder was postponed abruptly right before tip-off.
Players won't have to worry about drug testing while the NBA is on its COVID-19 break.
CBS reports the league and player's union have agreed to suspend random drug tests for at least 30 days.
Players still can't officially practice but can work out on their own.
