Patrick Ewing hospitalized with coronavirus

Might need a separate thread.

Doesn't say much other than he tested positive and is isolated in the hospital.

I especially dislike the hospitalized part.

I'm hoping it's more precautionary, but when you look demographic of those getting the worst results he fits too many of them.

For all the crud he took throughout his career - he seemed to be one athlete who earned the right to be embittered, but he's never been that way. Get well soon Patrick.

Correct. Plenty of people have been able to fully recover without hospitalization.

Get well, Patrick.

Hospitalized isn't the death knell. If he goes on a vent, that's different.

Hopefully, it isn't contagious through sweat.

One photo I've always loved is this one. The color combo for those Hoyas unis were the best in all of college hoops.

Also makes you appreciate just how big John Thompson was.

He never pashed the ball; hopefully he doesn't pash this, either.

There's no evidence that it is transmitted by sweat. Just looked that up here.

Get well, soon, Admiral.
