NBA: LA Lakers Lebron James Coping Through Suspension, Looking For A Drinking Buddy

The coronavirus has brought about a major change in the world we live in. Events are being canceled in this very unpredictable predicament everyone is in. There have been thousands being infected with COVID-19 and the number of people dying is getting higher.

The largest sporting events have been called off as a way to stay safe amidst this pandemic. The National Basketball Association was one of the biggest leagues affected, as Utah Jazz All-Star Rudy Gobert was the first reported player to have the virus.

The reigning defensive player of the year was tested positive of the virus that prompted the league to suspend the season for at a minimum of three months.

Fellow Jazz star Donovan Mitchell followed as the second player to test positive of the coronavirus. It was also later on reported that Detroit Pistons' big man Christian Wood was also tested positive of the virus. Wood had a recent interaction with Gobert as he tallied 30 points and 11 rebounds.

With social distancing and self-quarantine as a prudent decision to make these days, NBA players are now finding ways to be busy.

Players have different ways of coping. Tacko Fall has been dancing and posting it online for fans to indulge on.

Spencer Dinwiddie and several others have spent it by watching their own YouTube highlights – a way to recover from the withdrawal of the season being suspended.

This includes LA Lakers' leader and MVP candidate Lebron James. Lebron tweeted that he’s going to be spending the time he has now with the people closest to him. He tweeted that he’s heading to Wakanda with his close friends and his family.

While other players are busy playing video games or exploring YouTube, Lebron, on the other hand, has coped with by getting a glass of wine. Lebron is known to be an avid wine lover and enjoys a glass or two when he’s not tearing up the court.

Considering that the season is indefinitely suspended, it’s only natural that Lebron seeks the comfort of a nice glass or bottle of wine to distress in this unfortunate situation.
