Doc Rivers emerges as a surprise head coaching candidate for Sixers

According to Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN, yet another high profile name has joined the NBA coaching carousel. After a disastrous series loss at the hands of the Denver Nuggets, the Los Angeles Clippers have officially parted ways with future Hall of Famer Doc Rivers

Despite boasting arguably the most stacked roster in all of basketball this season, headlined by Kawhi Leonard and Paul George, the Clippers were unable to advance past the Western Conference Semi-Finals. The team jumped out to a quick 3-1 lead over a scrappy Denver squad but were unable to close it out, allowing the Nuggets to claw all the way back and steal the series.
