The Milwaukee Bucks parted ways with head coach Doc Rivers, ending his nearly three-season tenure with the franchise.

The team is searching for their third head coach in three years, following the setback against the Philadelphia 76ers that brought their record to 32-50.

Rivers acknowledged the season didn't go as planned, citing injuries to key players like Giannis Antetokounmpo and Damian Lillard.

The team's owners praised Rivers for his 'class and professionalism,' despite a 97-103 record over three seasons and two first-round playoff exits.

Rivers is sixth all-time in regular-season wins and fourth in playoff wins, and was recently named into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame Class of 2026.
