Christian Wood tests positive for coronavirus
Wood is the first non-Jazz player to test positive for coronavirus. Possible reason is the Pistons vs Jazz game last March 7. Wood scored 30 points and 11 rebounds in that game as he was matched against Gobert.
It is not known how Wood contracted the virus, but the Pistons have played the New York Knicks and Philadelphia 76ers since playing the Jazz.
Wood was having a good stretch after scoring 32 points against the Philadelphia 76ers four nights after the Jazz game.
Unfortunately, Wood will have to focus on recovery for the time being.
Will Christian Wood get back in top form prior to the diagnosis? Will he be the same after? Leave a comment and let us know your thoughts.
