Catching up on some news we missed over the transition from NBA Cup bliss and the ensuing holiday here in the US, back on December 19th, the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame announced their list of candidates for the 2025 class. Unlike in some recent years, we’ve got multiple players and coaches associated with the Bucks on the ballot, including two currently very prominent names: head coach Doc Rivers, TV analyst and former All-NBA forward Marques Johnson, former TV analyst and original Buck Jon McGlocklin, and former All-Star forward Terry Cummings. Rivers is a first-time nominee.
I hate to break it to a certain segment of the Bucks fanbase and many other NBA fans around the league, but Doc Rivers is going to be in the Hall of Fame someday.
