Jazz star Rudy Gobert thought he was being funny when he openly mocked COVID-19 at the podium during a press conference a few days ago, and he really wish he hadn’t done so.
Gobert got up from the podium and touched all the microphones, then smiled, essentially insinuating “Look, I’m healthy!”
Well, Gobert, as it turns out, became the first NBA player to have been diagnosed with COVID-19. The NBA has now suspended its season indefinitely, with teammate Donovan Mitchell having been infected as well.
Gobert took to Instagram to apologize for his actions on Thursday.

Such a stupid move by him.
