Raptors Announce 3 Positive COVID-19 Tests
Three members of the Toronto Raptors organization have tested positive for COVID-19, the team announced Monday.
All three members are self-isolating away from the rest of the organization and adhering to NBA protocols, according to the team.
The team held a full training camp on Monday, general manager Bobby Webster said during a press conference.
"We're comfortable that the three cases were isolated. There was no contact," he said. "[After] contact tracing went through, there's been no further positive tests. So we're confident that we can continue with basketball."
Webster would not disclose if any players tested positive for the virus and wouldn't say if all the players were present at practice.
The news comes a day after Raptors coach Nick Nurse said the team was fully healthy for Sunday's practice. Webster wouldn't confirm if that was true.
The Raptors are reviewing NBA protocols to see if any rules were violated, but wouldn't comment further on any potential issues.
The announcement marks the first known positives within the Raptors organization since the COVID-19 pandemic shut down the NBA on March 11.
