At least five NBA teams are being told to self-quarantine as a fallout from the league's decision to suspend the 2019-20 season due to the coronavirus outbreak, according to ESPN's Brian Windhorst and Tim Bontemps. The Toronto Raptors, Detroit Pistons, Boston Celtics, New York Knicks, and the Cleveland Cavaliers all have one thing in common: they all played the Utah Jazz within the past 10 days .

Some players and coaches from these teams were scrambling to be tested as early as Wednesday night after learning of Rudy Gobert testing positive for COVID-19, the first case in the NBA.

Yet the quarantine doesn't nip this issue in the bud. These five teams have also played other teams during the past few days. There have also been more than a dozen referees who have worked Jazz games over the past week and gone on to officiate other games, making this a rather uncertain situation.

Upon learning of Gobert's diagnosis, players who had played the Jazz in recent games sought out tests to determine whether they'd been infected or not.

Over the past week, the NBA advised teams to work with health providers to provide testing for their players and visiting teams.

Last weekend, Golden State Warriors star Stephen Curry was tested for COVID-19 after he came down with flu-like symptoms, forcing him to miss Saturday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers and Tuesday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. The test came back negative, showing it was only a case of the flu.

The NBA plans to halt the 2019-20 season for at least two weeks before determining the next course of action. If every player is cleared of the coronavirus, there's the potential to resume play, but most expect this could be a prolonged suspension thanks to all this uncertainty surrounding the situation.
