The Sixers defeated the Pistons, 124-106, on March 11 at the Wells Fargo Center, moments before the NBA suspended the season due to the virus. Wood left the arena wearing a mask, according to sources.

The NBA suspended the season exactly a week ago after Utah Jazz All-Star Rudy Gobert became the first player to contract the coronavirus. Since then, Donovan Mitchell, Wood, Brooklyn Nets superstar Kevin Durant and three other teammates tested positive as well.

Before the season got suspended, the Sixers were in sixth place in the Eastern Conference standings with a record of 39-26. If the season resumes, they would have 17 games left in the regular season before the playoffs start.

NBA owners are trying to resume the season in June or July. The Sixers have lost in the second round of the postseason the last two years.
