The global outbreak of coronavirus has left the world's highest-profile sports stars on the shelf.

With many undergoing a voluntary two-week self isolation period, most have been finding novel ways to entertain themselves amid the craziness of COVID-19.

Basketball supremo LeBron James has been producing TikTok videos of choreographed dance routines, while former teammate Dwyane Wade has been shooting hoops with his kids.

But unfortunately for Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray, a very different type of video was uploaded to his account on Sunday (NZ time).

Murray had been entertaining fans with video's of him playing the piano but he's now been forced to apologise after his Instagram was hacked.

The 23-year-old said he was the victim of a hack after footage of a man receiving oral sex from a woman was sent out to his almost half a million followers.

With America in a near-countrywide lockdown, the timing couldn't be worse for Murray who has copped serious flack from internet trolls around the globe.

Murray’s girlfriend Harper Hempel, who he has been dating since college, has deleted her Instagram in the wake of the scandal.
