Now, I’m not saying all of the mass hysteria over coronavirus is warranted, but there’s a difference between skepticism and ignorance. The NBA suspended the 2019-2020 season after Gobert became the first player to test positive for the coronavirus, also known as COVID-19. The former NBA Defensive Player of the Year is now…
