Drake Fans Fear He May Have Caught Coronavirus From Kevin Durant

Following the shocking news of Kevin Durant testing positive for coronavirus, people are now suspecting Drake may be at risk due to being seen with the NBA star just a few days ago.

This coronavirus outbreak is getting real, people! 

Following the recent report that Kevin Durant was one of the Brooklyn Nets players that contracted COVID-19, another superstar name has now been thrown on the list of possible people at risk of catching it next, and it's probably one of the biggest ones so far.

It looks like hip-hop's golden boy Drake — yes, "DRAKE?!" — might have been exposed to coronavirus directly after he was seen hanging with Durant just a few days ago in Los Angeles. The last photo Drake posted on Instagram alongside Kevin Durant (seen above) pretty much proves that to be a fact, and with that another name has been thrown in for added drama as well: LeBron James. Drizzy just so happened to be hanging out court side with LeBron at his son Bronny James' Sierra Canyon game against Harvard-Westlake, and as you can imagine this opens up a whole new level to the outbreak. If the 6 God actually did contract the virus, this could be the case that sees everything getting way more out of hand than it already has. We can't say this enough, but please stay healthy out there by taking the social distancing movement seriously!

Of course, social media already got started with opinions. Take a look below at just some of the reactions to Drake possibly catching coronavirus from Kevin Durant:

The Brooklyn Nets confirmed on Tuesday afternoon that four players on the team had tested positive for coronavirus. Among them, superstar forward Kevin Durant.

According to The Athletic's Shams Charania, Durant has not shown any symptoms and says he's feeling fine as of now, but warned others to be mindful and keep themselves quarantined during this frightening time.

Durant was reportedly with the Brooklyn Nets last week as they prepared to take on the Golden State Warriors at the Chase Center in San Francisco. As we know, that game was scheduled to take place in an empty arena, but the NBA season was abruptly postponed once it was discovered that Utah Jazz center Rudy Gobert had tested positive.

As of now, the Nets are the only team outside of the Jazz and Detroit Pistons who have had someone test positive for the coronavirus. Those infected include Utah's Rudy Gobert and Donovan Mitchell, as well as Detroit's Christian Wood. Worth noting, the Nets did not play the Jazz or the Pistons over the last two weeks before the shutdown.

As of this writing the other three Nets players who tested positive for the coronavirus have not yet been revealed. The team issued the following statement on Tuesday.

"All players and members of the Nets travel party are being asked to remain isolated, closely monitor their health and maintain constant communication with team medical staff," the Nets said in a statement. "The health of our players and staff is of the highest priority to the organization and the team is doing everything within its power to ensure that those affected receive the best care possible."
