Speaking to The Athletic, KD assured his fans that he’s doing fine for now and has isolated himself in the meantime. The Brooklyn Nets also shared that the team is taking every precaution to ensure that the health of the players and staff is being looked after.
“All players and members of the Nets travel party are being asked to remain isolated, closely monitor their health and maintain constant communication with team medical staff,” the statement reads. “The health of our players and staff is of the highest priority to the organization, and the team is doing everything within its power to ensure that those affected receive the best care possible.”
