Report: Sixers expected to offer Doc Rivers head coaching job soon

The Philadelphia 76ers’ head coach search has been focused on Tyronn Lue and Mike D’Antoni for a while, with the latter being reported as the Sixers’ top target over the last few weeks. The search has taken a turn since Doc Rivers was fired by the Los Angeles Clippers, though. Doc quickly emerged as a strong candidate, and now it looks like he’s the coach the Sixers have settled on.

Jason Dumas of KRON4 News has reported that it’s expected the Sixers will be offering Doc their head coaching job soon.
