Multiple Kings quarantining after positive COVID-19 tests
多位国王球员因为COVID-19 被隔离
By James Ham
The NBA is embarking on another unprecedented season under the torture of the coronavirus pandemic. After having four players test positive leading up to the bubble in Orlando in late June and July, the Kings have once again been hit with the virus that has killed more than 1.5 million people globally.
NBA在病毒肆虐的情况下，开始了另一个新球季。
国王自从奥兰多的泡泡赛有4名球员因为阳性被隔离后，再次受到病毒的攻击。该病毒已杀死了全球总计150万人。
According to head coach Luke Walton, the Kings currently have players under quarantine with coronavirus.
根据总教练Luke的说法，队上确实有球员被隔离
“Before we got back into the facility and we were going through the NBA protocol, as far as the safety stuff is concerned, we had a couple of positive tests,” Walton said. “Before we opened up, those guys were put in quarantine.”
我们在回到球场之前，并须通过NBA制定的流程，我们针对安全性做了一些积极的检测。 在我们被允许开放之前，这些小伙被隔离了。
Due to HIPAA rules (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996), the Kings are not allowed to reveal the names of players who are currently infected by the virus.
根据1996制定的HIPAA规则（健康保障传播与责任法案）国王无权透露感染者的身分
Players are allowed to release that information themselves, but to date, no one from the Kings have come forward with that information.
球员可以自行公布，但目前没有消息
This is the new reality for NBA players. The bubble was a safe environment, but that safety net is gone. It is going to be on the players to stay safe and be as responsible as possible.
这就是NBA的现况，在没有泡泡保护之下打球，球员要尽可能保持安全并负起责任。
“For us, it’s about being responsible, just trying to limit your opportunities to get the virus,” De’Aaron Fox said.
Fox说：对我们来说，这是一种负责的态度，试着限制大家被病毒感染的机会。
The NFL has been a one of the guinea pigs for professional sports, but they have huge rosters, fewer games and more flexibility.
NFL一直为其他职业运动进行CB 测试，他们有更多的球员与较少的场次与安排上的灵活性。
“With the NBA, it’s definitely going to be different,” Fox said. “It’s not like the NFL where you have one game in a week. If somebody gets it then you kind of shut down for a couple of days. Basketball, if one guy gets it or a few guys get it, you shut down and now the whole team has to cancel 2-3 games.”
“对NBA来说肯定有所不同”Fox说。“他们可以休息几天而不影响场次，但一位或几位NBA球员中了，球队将不得不取消2-3场比赛。
Not only are the Kings dealing with a few positive tests, but they have also been thrown into some uncertainty with their preseason schedule. They were set to play the Portland Trail Blazers on Friday and Sunday this coming week, but those games might be in jeopardy.
国王不仅要面对测试呈阳性的结果，还有季前赛的不确定。他们原先预计在周五与下周和阿拓打季前赛，但这些比赛可能会置身于危险中。
"Over the past four days, we have had three positive COVID test results within our organization,” Blazers GM Neil Olshey said via press release. “Out of an abundance of caution, having completed contact tracing, we are closing our practice facility today for deep cleaning while we run confirmatory tests.”
阿拓的老大此前发布的新闻稿中，他们在4天的检验出现了3个阳性反应，出于谨慎，在追踪完成之前他们将封闭场馆并全面清洁
The Kings found out about the situation in Portland as they came off the practice floor. They have no idea what this announcement means for their team, but it plays into a bigger conversation of how the team has to approach this season.
在国王离开了练习基地后发现了阿拓出了些情况，他们还不知道后续影响，但本季的赛程势必需要更多的讨论
“That goes back to the theme that we shared and talked about as a team before practice today, which was acknowledge, accept and attack,” Walton said. “We have to acknowledge the fact that it’s going to be a crazy season.”
我疼： 练习之前我们有做一些讨论，包含认可、接受与攻击。我们必须接受并且直面这个疯狂的球季。
Walton said that if the games get cancelled later this week, the Kings will have to adapt. It might be a blessing in disguise that would allow the team four additional days to hit the practice floor and focus on improving.
如果晚些时候被告知比赛取消，国王将不得不适应。往好处想，也许球队多了4天去练习并精进。
