LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla.– Houston Firecrackers reserve Danuel Home Jr. is under examination by the league for presumably permitting a female COVID-19 testing official into his hotel room, and his status for the rest of the Western Conference semifinals against the Los Angeles Lakers remains in question, sources told Yahoo Sports.
Home maintains his innocence, sources stated, and a choice from the league is expected before Game 4 on Thursday.
Veteran center Tyson Chandler and House were eliminated of Game 3 on Tuesday for “personal factors.”
Opposing teams are closely monitoring how the league handles this circumstance.
The Rockets are the only remaining group staying at Walt Disney Worlds Grand Floridian Resort, which is where the group undergoes its everyday screening.
House is balancing 11.4 points and shooting 36 percent from 3-point variety in 9 championship game in the NBAs Disney bubble. The Lakers hold a 2-1 series lead.
