For the third consecutive week, the NBA and NBPA jointly announced that zero players tested positive for COVID-19 in Walt Disney World Resort campus.

The league and the union tested 343 players since the last update on July 29.

In the event a player in the bubble returns a positive test in the future, they would be isolated until cleared to return.

The news comes on the same day that Florida, where the campus is located, reported 5,495 new cases of the coronavirus.
