Milwaukee Bucks Head Coach Doc Rivers Hospitalized After Yesterday’s Game
Milwaukee Bucks head coach Doc Rivers was admitted to the hospital late last night following the team’s match due to reported chest discomfort. The veteran coach began experiencing symptoms shortly after the game and was taken to a nearby medical facility as a precaution.
The Bucks released a statement earlier today confirming Rivers’ hospitalization, noting that he is undergoing further evaluation but is currently in stable condition. “Our thoughts are with Coach Rivers and his family,” the statement read. “We are grateful for the swift action of our medical staff and the care he is receiving.”
Assistant coach Charles Lee is expected to step in temporarily as Rivers focuses on his recovery. The Bucks are set to play their next game in two days, and it remains uncertain whether Rivers will return courtside by then.
Doc Rivers, a seasoned NBA coach with multiple accolades, joined the Bucks earlier this season and has been instrumental in leading the team to a strong start. Fans and players alike have expressed their support, flooding social media with messages of encouragement for his speedy recovery.
More updates on Rivers’ condition are expected in the coming days.
