The Hungry Jack’s National Basketball League (NBL) has made changes to the schedule in line with its COVID health and safety protocols.
The Illawarra Hawks’ games on December 31 against the Sydney Kings and January 2 against the Cairns Taipans have been postponed following positive results at the Hawks.
As the Brisbane Bullets were the last team to play Illawarra, Queensland Health deemed Brisbane close contacts and ordered follow-up testing. Positive results have since been returned from Brisbane thus the Boxing Day game between Brisbane and the Cairns Taipans has been postponed.
All games will be rescheduled.
Illawarra and Brisbane players and staff are double vaccinated.
The health and safety of the players, coaches, clubs, staff and fans is the League’s number one priority when considering these matters.
The NBL will continue to follow the advice of governments and health authorities. Regular testing of all players and staff will continue, while further testing will be carried out on individuals impacted or those deemed close contacts.
