After his comments on Giannis Antetokounmpo's basketball IQ and coachability went viral, former Bucks coach Doc Rivers reached out to the Heat star to apologise, ESPN's Marc J. Spears reported. Rivers said he meant to say 'feel for the game' rather than 'IQ', and that Antetokounmpo took the apology well. Rivers coached him for two and a half seasons in Milwaukee.
"It was more of a compliment. I hate this and feel bad about it. I apologize for the distraction. I'm not trying to be one." — Doc Rivers
