As NBA training camps get underway this week, the test results for COVID-19 are starting to come in.

Apparently, the league has gotten off to a rough start with almost 50 players testing positive.

With the NBA electing to go without a bubble environment to start the 2020-21 campaign, the league can expect to see a considerable spike in positive tests after going flawless in Orlando, Fla.

This may be the beginning of a tough time for the league as it adjusts to the pandemic.
