JAKARTA – The cases of players and personnel outside of players who are positive for COVID-19 in the Indonesian Basketball League (IBL) have increased again. The latest tracing results found as many as five people were positive for corona.

These results are based on tests conducted on Wednesday, February 2 last. A total of four players and one assistant coach tested positive.

IBL took a break for the second series Bandung since last Thursday, February 3rd. The day before, the organizers of the country's highest caste postponed four matches at once.

This pause will last until Saturday, February 5 tomorrow. The match will resume if positive cases among players and non-player personnel have decreased.

The second series which took place in Bandung has been plagued by cases of positive COVID-19 players since the first day. As a result, the IBL had to postpone many matches.

This delay made the organizers plan to extend the Bandung series. If this series runs normally like the first series in Jakarta, then all matches should be finished on Saturday.
