Denver Nuggets star big man Nikola Jokic tested positive for COVID-19 in Serbia last week and now his return to the US is delayed.  Jokic is asymptomatic and is expected to be cleared for reentry within a week.  

As all teams are beginning to test their players for COVID-19, the expectation is that several will test positive with a new opportunity to treat, control, and quarantine before heading into the "bubble campus."
