Milwaukee Bucks center Myles Turner described a lack of discipline during Doc Rivers' tenure as head coach last season. Speaking on the podcast Game Recognize Game, Turner said Rivers never issued fines, which allowed players including Giannis Antetokounmpo to arrive late to flights and meetings.
Turner explained that the absence of fines created widespread tardiness. Players showed up hours after scheduled times for team travel, and meetings were frequently missed. He contrasted this with other teams where fines enforced order and accountability throughout the season.
