The NBA had been going through a period of one new coronavirus case among players per week .
Even better than one: Zero.
NBA release:
Of the 488 players tested for COVID-19 since April 7, zero new players have returned a confirmed positive test.
Coronavirus rates are falling as vaccinations increase .
This doesn't mean the NBA is completely over the hump. The league also had weeks with no new cases in December and February .
But post-pandemic life is within sight . The fewer people that contract coronavirus until then, the better. And it doesn't get any better than no new cases.
