Howard, however, may have simply sneaked in on himself.

“Someone said about me,” he said.

Miami Heat star Jimmy Butler even asked him about security for dribbling a basketball in his room.
Not everyone is happy with the top line. Brooklyn Nets guard Spencer Dinwiddie, who has given up on the season and is not on the bubble, said he told players not to use the “hotline”. Utah Utah jazz center Rudy Gobert – who was the first player to catch the virus in the league after his infamous microphone crash in March – even called him “mean”.
Regardless of how it happened, Howard received a warning not to wear a mask inside the bubble.
And if he really won’t wear one, maybe it shouldn’t be so obvious about it next time.
