The Jazz played in Boston on Friday.
We'll keep you updated on further developments. The Celtics played the Jazz this past weekend, so expect all their players to get tested asap. Reportedly several owners wanted to suspend the season and not just play in fan-less arenas and that was prior to the Gobert bombshell. After that happened the "hiatus" second option became the move the NBA decided to make.
