On late Tuesday afternoon, the NBA issued a 113-page handbook to all 22 NBA teams that will be taking part inside the bubble community in Walt Disney World. There were a plethora of details made regarding the various protocols and services for players and staff while they are in the bubble. Here are some of the points of note:
In the handbook, it was not specified how many positive tests would it take for the league to shut down the bubble and forgo the remainder of the season. If someone does test positive, that person will be placed in isolated housing and administered a second COVID-19 test to ensure that it was not a false positive. If the second test comes back negative, then a third test will be administered in the following 24 to 48 hours. As soon as someone tests negative twice in a 24-hour span, they will be allowed to leave isolation.
