The Oklahoma City Thunder and Utah Jazz NBA game got delayed on Wednesday and fans started booing when the players started walking back to the locker room.

This obviously has to do with the coronavirus. The Golden State Warriors will host the Brooklyn Nets on Thursday at an empty Chase Center.

Jazz center Rudy Gobert got sick after he recently touched every mic and recorder in front of him. It wasn't the smartest move by the two-time reigning NBA Defensive Player of the Year.

There's a strong chance all NBA games could be played without fans moving forward. Clearly, Thursday's Warriors-Nets game is going to be strange with no fans in the arena. However, the coronavirus is spreading like crazy and the league is just trying to be safe.

NBA media are no longer allowed in the locker rooms. If media personnel want to conduct interviews with players, they will have to do it outside the locker room and clubhouse. The MLB and NHL are doing the same thing as the NBA.
