The Milwaukee Bucks have officially confirmed that men’s basketball head coach Doc Rivers has tested positive for COVID-19 and has been placed under the NBA’s health and safety protocols, effective immediately.
Following the positive test result, Rivers will temporarily step away from team activities as required by league regulations. The organization emphasized that this action is medical in nature and not disciplinary, and does not constitute a suspension.
Under NBA policy, individuals who test positive must undergo isolation, monitoring, and medical clearance before returning to basketball duties. The Bucks confirmed that Rivers is currently asymptomatic and in stable condition, and the team will continue to operate with assistant coaches handling day-to-day responsibilities in his absence.
The Bucks added that Doc Rivers remains the official head coach of the franchise, and his return will be determined strictly by medical clearance and league guidelines.
The organization asked fans and media to rely on verified updates and to avoid spreading inaccurate reports regarding suspensions or disciplinary actions.
