Milwaukee Bucks coach Doc Rivers said Friday that star forward Giannis Antetokounmpo has been difficult to coach, adding that the two-time MVP "doesn't have a super-high IQ."
The comments were reported on November 6, 2026. Rivers did not elaborate further on the assessment in initial accounts.
Antetokounmpo has played his entire NBA career with the Bucks.
The team has not publicly responded to the remarks.
