Adrian Wojnarowski is now saying that LeBron must miss at least 10 days due to COVID protocols. The NBA star has tested positive for the virus, and he is now going to have to quarantine until he can muster two consecutive negative PCR tests. This is a horrible situation for the Lakers, who could very well end up losing out on LeBron for up to 4 or 5 games.
