The corona continues to spread in the countries and affect the NBA as well.
Boston will host Miami tonight (Sunday through Monday) without seven players absent due to isolation procedures: Jason Taitum, Jaylen Brown, Tristan Thompson, Sammy O'Sullivan, Jabonte Green, Grant Williams and Robert Williams.
The latter and Taitum have reportedly been found positive for Corona recently, and the players who came in close contact with them needed isolation.
If you add to this list the injured Kamba Walker and Romeo Langford, then the Celtics will line up for the game with only eight players - the minimum before a game is canceled - most of them anonymous: Cress Edwards, Taco Paul, Aaron Nismith, Peyton Pritchard, Marcus Smart, Jeff Teague, Daniel Theis and Vermont Waters.
Miami, for its part, will be missing Avery Bradley who went into isolation, but at the moment it is still unclear whether more representatives of the Heat players will miss the contest due to the league’s corona procedures.
Dallas also suffers from the virus.
The Mavericks closed out their training ground after Maxi Caliber was found positive - the second player to be found positive in the last three days.
Jaylen Branson, Dorian Pini-Smith and Josh Richardson are in isolation and will likely not be able to play against New Orleans tomorrow night.

In the United States there have already been those who have raised the possibility of another bubble, such as the one that closed last season in Orlando.
"I hope it doesn't happen," Indiana player Victor Oladipo said.
"I hope we do not end up in another bubble, but in the end we have to do what is safest."
