It started as a joke but it's not so funny now.

Utah Jazz player Rudy Gobert who is now the NBA’s Patient Zero for coronavirus jokingly touched all tape recorders at a post-practice interview on Monday before leaving.

Only days after, Gobert tested positive for the virus, leading to the NBA suspending the rest of its season.

There are also reports that Gobert's Utah teammate, Donovan Mitchell has tested positive as well.
