"Infected" players

Is this section really appropriate? It seems like media is going out of their way not to publicize those people who have tested positive. I know these results were released by the press but maybe they shouldn't get their own section to highlight this info. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 05:13, 13 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

There's a related AfD at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of people with coronavirus disease 2019, whose outcome could provide some guidance here. Even if this stays, WP:RSBREAKING should be followed. A few sources reported (erroreously?) yesterday that one player tested positive, but they have not been mentioned since.—Bagumba (talk) 07:06, 13 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Rudy Gobert touching the mics

Is there a reason why the article has made no reference to the incident where Gobert was touching everyone's mics as a joke at a news conference to joke about coronavirus before, ironically, being infected with it himself? ViperSnake151 Talk 19:47, 16 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
