The two-time NBA Finals MVP had experienced no symptoms before testing positive, reports Charania.

Durant and his Brooklyn Nets teammates were tested last week after returning from the Bay Area, according to ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski. The Brooklyn Nets’ Thursday night game against the Golden State Warriors was eventually canceled after the NBA suspended its season indefinitely amid the coronavirus outbreak.
