Los Angeles Clippers head coach Doc Rivers got emotional during Wednesday's pregame press conference.
Rivers was asked by a reporter who he leans on for emotional support after seeing his two best players go down with serious injuries. Although it was not the reporter's intention, the question caused Rivers to immediately think of his late mother, who passed away last June.
