The team canceled its morning shootaround and is conducting more tests to discover any more positives. The Kings haven't yet made a decision on who will be acting coach against the Wizards.

Gentry said he's asymptomatic save for a scratchy throat. He needs two negative tests 24 hours apart to return.

Gentry is 5-6 since being named interim coach last month after the Kings fired Luke Walton. The Kings have lost three in a row.

The Kings next play Friday against the visiting Memphis Grizzlies.
