The coronavirus spread in the early stages of the 2020-21 Turkish Airlines EuroLeague season extends to Zenit Saint-Petersburg. Austin Hollins, Anton Pushkov, and physiotherapist Andrei Kozlov tested positive for coronavirus, the Russian club announced Friday morning.
The three Zenit members were immediately quarantined and remain under medical supervision. They all will be retested. Apart from the three people, the Russian outlet will move forward in the usual manner ahead of the EuroLeague Regular Season Round 2 game versus FC Barcelona recently rescheduled for Friday night.
The Spanish side traveled to Russia without head coach Sarunas Jasikevicius and assistant Darius Maskoliunas due to positive coronavirus tests.
