Doc Rivers was reportedly pushing for the Milwaukee Bucks to retain a key free agent this summer. In an interview with The Athletic's Eric Nehm (subscription required), Milwaukee's general manager, Jon Horst, said, "Doc was pushing for the Ryan [Rollins] pick-up." The Bucks and Rollins were able to come to terms on an extension, and now, Rivers must unlock the guard.
