NBA: Rockets-Thunder postponed after positive Covid-19 tests
23 December 2020 Basketball
The Houston Rockets' season opener against the Oklahoma City Thunder has been postponed because the Rockets are unable to field enough players.
Three Rockets players returned either positive or inconclusive coronavirus results, with another four needing to quarantine after contact tracing.
Rockets star James Harden is unavailable because of a violation of the NBA's coronavirus protocols.
All other Rockets players were retested today, and returned negative results.
One player is also injured meaning they do not have the league-required eight available players to play the game at the Toyota Center in Houston.
