After days of Eric Bledsoe not appearing in any social media, it seems that he has tested positive for COVID-19, per Chris Haynes of Yahoo.

Given his absence, it’s not a surprising report, but it’s promising to hear that he is symptom-free at this point. Presumably, he should be joining the team prior to their first game later in July, given the 14-day mandatory quarantine period.
Not having Bledsoe for any significant period of time is obviously a blow to Milwaukee, but first and foremost remains his health and the health of his family. Here’s hoping for a speedy recovery that continues with no symptoms. Get well soon Bled.
