    So what? He was at a party breaking rules without a mask, hell who is to say he didn't give it to KJ?

    You don't excuse bad behavior he should be held accountable, fined and suspended without pay.

    Covid, they were probably trying to do the right thing - by avoiding large crowds.....

    You could also...not go to someone's apartment. You can have protocols for bringing a barber into a controlled environment instead of risking it. They have the resources to make it safe but I'd rather not get into this conversation any further.

    Obviously I'd prefer everyone to play, but at this point, just let Wood be able to play and I'm good.

    the NBA is a little slow on the narrative:

    https://www.nba.com/news/13-game-slate-filled-with-stars-storylines

    Thunder vs. Rockets (8 ET, League Pass)
    No offense to Oklahoma City, which has basketball wonks excited about its rebuild thanks to so much “draft capital” (the trendy way of saying GM Sam Presti has done with future picks what Google has tried to do with search engines). But let’s be frank, Thunder vs. Rockets packs its prurient punch because of James Harden. The Beard will remain the NBA’s No. 1 trade target among All-Stars until he either gets dealt or goes public on and off the floor with a we-are-family approach. Hopefully when Harden hits the floor, we’ll see the reasons why the Rockets – with John Wall on hand from the Westbrook swap – could remain a strong fit for him.​

    Jones?
    Gordon
    House
    Tucker? Tate
    Wood

    Bruno
    Brown
    Nwaba

    Silas gets a real test the first game.

    Honestly, that's still a much better team than OKC. OKC may seriously be the worst team in the league.

    Why would they rule him eligible over Wall or Cousins? Just because we're shorthanded? No way they let him play after he went to a party, even if it wasn't a strip club. Players are supposed to avoid bars and lounges as well as any gatherings with more than 15 people. They're not going to make an exception for a player breaking protocol because other players broke protocol. If we can't dress eight players we should forfeit.

    Nobody is happier than me. Nwaba is better than all the role players on the roster. He should be seen as valuable as Danny Green to this team.

    Woj's article leaves it up in the air at the moment.

    The likelihood is that they are out but I guess keep an eye on whether KJ's extra testing confirms anything.
