JAKARTA - Seven Los Angeles Clippers support staff are required to undergo quarantine in Salt Lake City, Utah, after finding positive cases of COVID-19 between them and some others due to having been in close contact.
On the night before the Clippers beat host Utah Jazz 100-106 at the Vivint Smart Home Arena, Friday, January 1, the support staff is known to have dinner together on New Year's Eve 2021.
With the applicable COVID-19 prevention rules and protocols, the seven Clippers support staff are prohibited from following their team from continuing the series of away matches to the Phoenix Suns headquarters in Arizona on Sunday local time (Monday WIB).
"Based on the COVID-19 health and safety protocol in force in the NBA, a number of our staff are currently undergoing quarantine," a Clippers spokesman said as quoted by Reuters on Monday morning.
"Even so, we have a sufficient number of staff to have the match against the Phoenix Suns tonight," he added.
Last week, the NBA said that none of the 495 players who had tested positive for COVID-19 in the period 24-30 December 2020 had tested positive.
