00:00 Lou Williams will miss the first two seeding games of the NBA restart as the
00:04 league has assigned him to a 10-day quarantine after his visit to Magic
00:08 City while on an excused absence from the NBA bubble. Now the Clippers guard
00:12 was excused to attend the funeral of a close family friend on Thursday but
00:16 later Thursday rapper Jack Harlow posted a picture of himself and Williams at
00:21 Magic City in Atlanta, a photo he later deleted. But in it, Williams is holding a
00:26 drink and wearing an NBA mask that was handed out in the bubble in Orlando. Now
00:32 Williams told investigators he simply ordered takeout food there after
00:35 attending a viewing for his late family friend but the league isn't considered
00:39 with what his activities were as much as the fact that he was in close proximity
00:44 to other people. Georgia especially has seen a surging infection rate and number
00:49 of COVID-19 related deaths recently. So Williams returned to the NBA campus on
00:54 Saturday to begin his quarantine.
