Perlawanan di antara Philadelphia 76ers dan Oklahoma City Thunder telah ditunda bagi pengesanan kontak rapat kes koronavirus, demikian diumumkan NBA.
Philadelphia (9-5) dan Oklahoma City (6-6) dijadualkan untuk bertemu di Chesapeake Energy Arena semalam tetapi 76ers tidak mempunyai lapan pemain untuk diturunkan disebabkan proses pengesanan kontak rapat dalam pasukan itu.
Ia berlaku selepas bintang Memphis Grizzlies, Jonas Valanciunas, memasuki protokol kesihatan dan keselamatan NBA menjelang perlawanan menentang Phoenix Suns hari ini, setelah menewaskan 76ers kelmarin.
Pemain dan ahli pasukan 76sers telah menjalani ujian saringan sejak Seth Curry dijangkiti COVID-19 pada 7 Januari lalu.
Philadelphia masih perlu berdepan Denver Nuggets dengan lapan pemain pada 9 Januari lalu biarpun Mike Scott tidak dapat beraksi kerana kecederaan.
