Clippers Coach Doc Rivers Thanks Stranger For Returning $2,000 Dropped On Ground [VIDEO]

Los Angeles Clippers head coach Doc Rivers got incredibly lucky on Monday. His Clippers overcame a 31-point deficit against the reigning national champion Golden State Warriors. But prior to that, Rivers dropped $2,000 on a San Francisco street that morning only for a stranger to give it back to him.

Doc Rivers Thanks Stranger For Good Deed

Rivers made sure to thank the stranger in his pre-game press conference. “Last thing,” Rivers said after answering all his questions. “Shout out to the San Francisco person who at the corner today, I was walking down the street — this is a true story — I reached in my pocket to grab my phone, unbeknownst to me I dropped about two grand on the street, kept walking, didn’t know it. A guy tapped me on the back and said, ‘That’s your money.'”

He added, “I don’t know a lot of places that that would happen,” he said. “But it happened today, so whoever that was, you could have had free tickets if you hadn’t have ran away.”
