A few days after he and teammate Rudy Gobert tested positive for COVID-19, Utah Jazz guard Donovan Mitchell made a video message to give an update on how he’s doing that was posted on the NBA’s official Twitter account Saturday afternoon.

In the 29-second video, Mitchell said, “Just want to say thank you guys so much for your continued support. Man, it means a lot to me. I feel fine. Things are going well.”

Mitchell said he’s following orders from health authorities to stay in isolation.

“I’m solo in here playing video games all day and can’t wait to get back out there on the floor, man, and play in front of the best fans in the world,” he said. “I really miss playing in front of you guys and I’ll see you guys soon.”
