Tuesday’s game in Detroit between the Spurs and Pistons will be postponed, a source tells ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski (Twitter link). The NBA has issued a press release confirming the news.
According to the league, a positive COVID-19 test within the Spurs and subsequent contact tracing will leave San Antonio without the mandated minimum of eight available players for tomorrow’s game.
The Spurs played in Atlanta on Friday night and in Charlotte on Sunday night, but it’s unclear if either the Hawks or Hornets will be affected by the league’s contact tracing protocols. While Quinndary Weatherspoon entered the health and safety protocols on Saturday after having played 10 minutes vs. Atlanta, we don’t know with any certainty that he was the Spur to test positive.
This is the 24th time this season – and the first in two weeks – that the NBA has had to postpone a game for reasons related to a positive coronavirus test or contact tracing. The full list can be found right here.
It was Popovich, in the cafeteria, with a spoon!
They call it Cluedo everywhere else but here in the US/Canada.
With the Griffin announcement & the game being canceled, I figured a little levity was OK.
You were serious about Cluedo, I didn’t know that.
Thanks for cluing me in!
Proper nouns like “Clue” should be translated into different languages, like every other part of speech. Unfortunately, IMO and not the norm
Actually the name was originally Cluedo given by its English inventor. It was changed to Clue by Parker Brothers when they licensed it here in the US.
