Between the drama surrounding Giannis Antetokounmpo and the most losing the Bucks have suffered in 10 years, it’s been a season to forget in Milwaukee, and it could be the last one before Doc Rivers steps away from coaching.
Ahead of a road game against the Brooklyn Nets, Rivers was asked Tuesday how much longer he wants to coach in the league.
“I won’t answer that,” the 64-year-old head coach said, via NBA insider Michael Scotto.

“But I have grandkids that I want to see. I’ll put it that way. And, so, I’ll let you figure it out from there. I have seven grandkids now, and they’re all 8 years and under. And it kills me every time I miss ‘Grandparents’ Day’ with each one of them in school. It’s probably time to go see them more.”
Rivers reiterated: “I’ll let you figure out the rest.”
Rivers will be inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame in August.
