Los Angeles Clippers guard Landry Shamet has tested positive for COVID-19, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports, and is unlikely to travel to Disney World with the team this week.
The 23-year-old becomes the 14th known player to have tested positive for the coronavirus, although at least 25 players have been diagnosed overall. This week, we wrote about the latest nine positive cases to come out of the league’s thorough testing process.
It’s unclear if Shamet is dealing with symptoms at this point. In any event, him not traveling with the team to Orlando this week doesn’t necessarily mean that he won’t be with the team when games begin at the end of the month.
Shamet is a key rotation player for the Clippers and a career .410 three-point shooter.
