CAMERAMAN IN COMA

A cameraman who filmed inside the Utah Jazz locker-room during their March 7 game in Detroit is reportedly in a medically induced coma after testing positive for the coronavirus.

The man has not been identified, but a friend told Yahoo! Sports that the 50-year-old began feeling ill a week after the game and was taken to a hospital on March 18.

Friends and co-workers said the man regularly works as a camera operator on NBA broadcasts at Little Caesars Arena.

Jazz centre Rudy Gobert was the first NBA player to test positive for COVID-19 on March 11, prompting the league to suspend the regular season
