The Houston Rockets have come to the surprise of Walt Disney Park, where the NBA season will be renewed, in addition to their superstars James Harden and Russell Westbrook. They train at home.
Texas club chief with media coach Mike D’Antoni did not give an official reason. It is speculated that the broader comments on the subject will refrain from the privacy of basketball players.
Rockets Wire notes that Thabo Sefolosha, who declined to go to Orlando a week ago, had hinted that several Rockets players had contracted COVID-19 but had not identified them. To protect the privacy of athletes, clubs are not required to appoint basketball players when they notify NBA officials.
Lucas Mbah a Moute, who took the place of Sefolosha, also did not come with the team. He adds that there may be other reasons for this, as, for example, the Los Angeles Clippers allowed their leader Kawhi Leonard to appear later for family reasons.
Three negative COVID-19 test results are required for athletes traveling alone prior to arrival.
The Rockets’ trio are due to hit bubble territory by the middle of this week, after which they will be quarantined for two days.
The Rockets will play their first test game on July 24 with the Toronto Raptors.
