Milwaukee Bucks Hire Doc Rivers As Head Coach, And It Smells Like A Potential Bust In The Making: REPORT
People need to let those Boston Celtics glory days go … this ain’t the same Doc Rivers.
Just hours after the Milwaukee Bucks fired head coach Adrian Griffin, the franchise has reportedly found their next skipper, and it’s a massive splash: The legendary Doc Rivers.
The news broke Tuesday night on “Inside the NBA” by Adam Lefkoe, who cited CNN Sports as the source.
Rivers has been coaching in the NBA for 24 years, having gigs with the Boston Celtics, Los Angeles Clippers, Philadelphia 76ers and Orlando Magic. In his career, he’s racked up a whopping 1,097 wins, which ranks No. 9 all-time in NBA history — he’s 111-104 in the postseason.
In 2008, Rivers won an NBA championship as the head coach of the Boston Celtics.
The Milwaukee Bucks have not confirmed CNN Sports’ report.
