Claiming your team has a COVID outbreak in order to avoid playing against a strong opponent.
Penny Hardaway claimed his Memphis Tigers had COVID so they wouldn't have to face Rick Barnes and the Tennessee Volunteers. He used the old Penny's Gambit.

A defense strategy where one seeks to extricate oneself from a bad situation by claiming to be innocent by (a usually absurd) technicality. Named for former US president Bill Clinton, who popularized this strategy in the 1990s with his creative explanations for how he didn't actually smoke weed because he didn't "inhale", and most infamously, how he didn't technically lie when he said there is no sexual relationship with Monica Lewinsky because "it depends on what the definition of "is" is."
Person 1: I just read an article about how Senator Rob Johnson claimed he didn't technically commit a crime by being involved in a plot to replace legitimate Electoral College electors with fraudulent ones in the 2020 election, because he was only involved for "a couple seconds"...
Person 2: A Republican using the Bill Clinton Gambit? Oh the sweet irony.
