The Associated Press confirms that Utah Jazz center Rudy Gobert has tested positive for COVID-19 coronavirus.

The test result, the NBA said, was reported shortly before the scheduled tip-off time for the Utah at Oklahoma City game on Wednesday night. The game was called off. Players were already on the floor for warmups and tip-off was moments away when they were told to return to their locker rooms.

About 30 minutes later, fans were told the game was postponed “due to unforeseen circumstances.”

This is a developing story that will be updated as more information becomes available.
