US: Kings And Pelicans Game Postponed Due To COVID-19 Concerns, NBA Season Later Suspended

Before the NBA match between the Sacramento Kings and New Orleans Pelicans on Wednesday night at Golden 1 Center started, an announcement was made that the game will be postponed due to coronavirus concerns. The association did so 'out of an abundance of caution because one of the referees assigned to work in the game also worked a Utah Jazz game earlier this week.' NBA later announced that a Utah Jazz player has preliminarily tested positive for COVID-19 and suspends the 2019-2020 season altogether 'until further notice.'18 sec video (Looped x2) .
