There have been several people in constant quarantine who have repeatedly tested negative who then test positive a week or two later, that is why it is generally a 2-week quarantine.
They tested 58 Jazz players and personnel and Mitchell was the only other positive test. So I guess that's a relief.

jaybone, I think they're pretty safe seeding the playoffs from today's standings. They got lucky in that respect. I'm fine if the Spurs run ends in another asterisk.
Zion is definitely Tier 1 TV, but at least Ja isn't a big step down
nobody wants to watch the Spurs
As a Spurs fan, I sadly concur.nobody wants to watch the Spurs
Rube world could have a field day with a European player as NBA Patient Zero. What a dumbass.

Gobert needs to have his work Visa revoked. He is pretty much singlehandedly responsible for American society about to domino to a halt. If there is anyone for Trump to easily and rightfully xenoblame, it is that dude.

I was talking this thru with a friend in my fabled fantasy league (which has been turned upside down).
And think about this - the NBA is obviously trying to figure a way to seed the playoffs with today's seeding and go forward with the playoffs in April. The only playoff spot arguably up for grabs is the #8 seed in the West and Memphis is a comfortable few games ahead of everyone. However, they had a tough schedule to finish the season and 538.com projected the Pelicans slipping in there and winning the #8 seed.
Anyway, the playoffs happening is totally contingent on nobody in the NBA getting infected between April 4th and April 18th (the scheduled start date of the playoffs) - that is a huge Fiing IF, is it not?
Fantasy wise, we are thinking about either taking the roster today and each player's averages over the last 30 days and playing that forward thru the last two weeks and then the playoffs. However, it is flawed because someone, say, holding Aaron Baynes is going to be effected weirdly, or what if you picked up Winslow for Memphis two days ago on the assumption he is going to start playing SF for Memphis ... We landed on taking the average totals of each team since the NBA trade-deadline - the last 5 or 6 weeks and running that against scheduled opponents, seeding the playoffs, and then comparing those same averages. For those teams with a lot of add/drops left (we have a max for the season of 80), give them a % boost against teams without all of the add/drops available ...
If they wait for a vaccine, this season is over. it won't be ready and tested for at least a year according to Dr. Fauci and those working on it.
Your math is slightly wrong - if they wait for a vaccine, the rest of this season and most of next season are off the table.
At some point, people are going to have to calm down and understand risk groups. If you are 60+, you simply cannot go to a live sporting event or concert until you are vaccinated - or until you contract the virus and survive it. If you have significant respiratory or heart conditions, ditto. 20 and 30-something athletes in peek physical condition need only worry about a shitty flu for a week or so. They simply are as likely to die from COV-19 as they are the regular flu.
I went to the grocery store at lunch today in Park Slope, Brooklyn and it was utter insanity. I waited in a line outside for 15 minutes just to get in the store, and then shopped wearing my winter gloves. I did a normal-ish shop plus some bags of frozen veggies and canned stuff I wouldn't normally get, but there were a number shoppers shopping as if The Walking Dead were crossing the Brooklyn Bridge and we had 45 minutes to shop before the lights go out ... forever.
