Heartwarming: NBA Contact Tracing Is Revealing That All NBA Players Are Best Friends With Each Other And Hang Out All The Time

The COVID-19 pandemic has forced millions of friends and family to isolate themselves from one another, but that hasn’t stopped professional athletes from defying the odds and getting even closer. In fact, following several positive COVID-19 tests, NBA contact tracing is revealing that all NBA players appear to be best friends with each other who hang out together all the time.

“After carefully reviewing CDC-defined close contacts of all players with a positive COVID-19 test, it became clear the league is bearing witness to rapidly spreading lifelong friendships,” said NBA contact tracer Chance Williams.

Pre-pandemic, many players were already at least somewhat friendly with one another prior to spending 11 weeks together in a bubble last summer. Now, many months into the pandemic, players from teams across the league are holding frequent sleepovers that feature karaoke, spitting contests, and hours of NBA 2K.

As the league works tirelessly to untangle this massive web of newfound friendship, it has instructed these tight-knit groups to spend even more time together—away from everyone else—for 10 to 14 days! It’s a really heartwarming gesture on behalf of the NBA, giving their players ample time for playing cards and filming TikTok videos. 

According to Luka Doncic’s little sister, who was spying on the boys during last night’s sleepover, every player in the NBA has decided to join the Los Angeles Lakers next offseason so that they can all play together on one big happy team.
