Akanno scrimmage.
« on: June 19, 2020, 04:28:49 PM »
Did not want to hijack the Akanno thread so I thought I would post it here.

Face masks and social distancing are mandated in California but these guys are not abiding by the rules. Do they get an exemption? So if some gym opens and no one is wearing a mask or social distancing will the authorities go after that gym owner? Just asking.

Apologies if I missed it...but where does it say they're playing in CA? The article says he's playing against Jazz players, so isn't it possible they're in Utah?

One of the posters said it was at Kobe's Sports Academy camp in LA.

I think it is absolutely a valid question.  Just because we like that Dex is looking good doesn't mean that the rules don't apply to these guys.  We've already seen quite a few athletes contract the disease from workouts and camps.  Hopefully, he was in contact with the coaches about this decision.

I’m just wondering where Rudy Gobert is.

Especially since some of those players will be shortly in contact with 22 other teams. (or were they all from the 10 that didn't make it? )

Spencer Dinwiddie has tested positive for covid19.

Dexter was training with him.
