The Los Angeles Lakers will travel to Dallas tomorrow to face the Dallas Mavericks, but after testing positive for the new crown virus, the flight had to be delayed. After the test results of all the team members, it is confirmed that Tucker is the only player in the Lakers who has tested positive and is in compliance with the league's health and safety protocol for the protection of the new crown virus.

If Tucker boarded the team's flight without detection, other players are likely to suffer as a result, which will affect the entire team's next intensive schedule.

Previously, LeBron James of the Lakers missed the game due to being included in the league's health and safety agreement list, although he only missed one game before returning to the court. However, many teams in the league are actually dealing with more player absences. In the Chicago Bulls, as many as 10 players are included in the health and safety agreement. So the Bulls had to postpone all two games this week. The Brooklyn Nets currently have five players in the health and safety agreement.

The Lakers haven't played a game with all their players deployed this season. Trevor Ariza and Kendrick Nunn have not been scheduled to play during the season, and Anthony Davis is currently dealing with a knee injury. And Tucker is the last time the Lakers player was forced to miss the game due to the diagnosis.

Regrettably, the 21-year-old rookie Tucker just finished his best game of the season. In the victory over the Orlando Magic, he scored 19 points and 6 steals. According to his data in 15 games this season, he averaged 28.8 minutes per game, and scored 11.3 points, 4.5 rebounds, 2.9 assists and 1.3 steals. He is the Lakers' main shooting guard lineup. Candidate.

At present, in accordance with the league’s medical procedures and health and safety protocols, any player who tests positive for the new crown virus must be suspended and isolated, and can only return to the game after 10 days of isolation, or have passed the new crown virus twice within 24 hours Only after the test result is negative, can they return to the game.

Previously, James tested positive for the new crown virus and was forced to miss the game and be isolated and further tested. He was found by the league to have a false positive test result. Then he cleared the league’s health and safety protocol, but this also led to The team and players lost the best time to play the game. At the same time, this situation makes James question the alliance's medical procedures and policies. And as many players in the league continue to show positive reactions in the new crown virus test, it seems that more and more players and even teams will be forced to miss the game.
