New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio took aim at the NBA on Tuesday for its financial ability to test players for the coronavirus, arguing there are “critically ill patients” who should be prioritized. Four players on the Brooklyn Nets, including Kevin Durant, tested positive for COVID-19, the team announced Tuesday. De Blasio appeared to disagree with the organization's decision to test the players. "Following two players testing positive last week, others were tested and five additional players tested positive." In addition to the four Nets, Utah's Donovan Mitchell and Rudy Gobert, and Detroit's Christian Wood are the other NBA players who have tested positive.
