Members of the Los Angeles Lakers are under quarantine for 14 days and will be tested for COVID-19, according to Reuters.

The Lakers reportedly participated in a team conference call after the Brooklyn Nets, their most recent opponent, disclosed that four of their players tested positive for coronavirus.

The Lakers issued a press release that did not specifically mention whether players are being quarantined or tested.

The statement read: "Given the exposure risks from our game against the Nets on March 10, we are following the next steps of our COVID-19 procedures and protocol."
