Memphis Grizzlies star GG Jackson openly mocked Doc Rivers and the Milwaukee Bucks after his team secured a 113-110 victory on Thursday night.
Following a 27-point performance, Jackson stepped up for a postgame interview and was asked about what led up to the win.
That is when the 19-year-old dropped a savage line that immediately went viral in the aftermath.
Jackson’s response speaks for itself:
GG Jackson: “Great credit to Doc Rivers and the Milwaukee Bucks.”

Bro is old enough to see a dozen of choke jobs from Doc Rivers. One ring with them KG Pierce Allen Rondo can’t even cover all those blown lead up

Milwaukee has now lost two straight games and is 3-7 in their last 10 outings.
Not great.
Moreover, before Rivers was hired the Bucks boasted a 121.9 offensive rating and 117.7 defensive rating. Since he was brought aboard? An offensive rating of 113.3 and a defensive rating of 115.4.

Again, not great.
Bringing Damian Lillard in over the summer was supposed to change this team’s trajectory, but thus far it hasn’t done a ton. He is too busy dealing with his messy divorce to make a significant impact.
Will the Bucks be able to get back on track? Or will they continue to be the butt of jokes for terrible teams like the Grizzlies for the rest of the year? Time will tell.
