Before the bubble games started, the NBA had a rule which prohibited NBA players from kneeling during the anthem. However, commissioner Adam Silver decided not to penalize any of the players or coaches given the social climate we are living in.

Stephen Curry was one of the first big-time athletes to support former NFL quarterback Colin Kaepernick when he started to kneel during the anthem. The Warriors star always knew Kaepernick wasn't disrespecting the flag or the military. Both Curry and Kap are tired of seeing unarmed Black people getting shot by the police.

Jacob Blake was the most recent African American man who was shot by the police. He was shot seven times in the back despite not committing a crime. He's currently paralyzed from the waist down.

Blake's father has had conversations with numerous people in the NBA since the tragic shooting, including LeBron James, Chris Paul and Giannis Antetokounmpo.
