Recently, several head coaches including Denver Nuggets coach Mike Malone spoke out against this injustice. The NBA put out a statement earlier today addressing these concerns, saying:

"We are hoping to add additional family members for other participants beginning with the Conference Finals. We are mindful of the incredible hardship these restrictions impose and wish it were not necessary for the health and safety of everyone involved."

National Basketball Coaches Association president Rick Carlisle has said that the coaches are working with the NBA to bring the coaches' families to the bubble.

It was not just the coaches, and players spoke up about this issue as well. LA Lakers' superstar LeBron James supported the coaches in a tweet earlier today.
