Skiles wakes up hungover, hopes he didn’t do anything stupid in Milwaukee on Monday

Skiles tries not to vomit after realizing what he’s done

MILWAUKEE, WI — Former NBA guard and recent Bulls head coach Scott Skiles woke up Tuesday morning with a brutal hangover and a nagging feeling that he had done something awful the night before.

“I just got a weird vibe that I made a foolish move that I would regret for the next three or four years,” Skiles told SSNN. “It was nothing in particular that I could think of, you know? Just like a creeping, sickly feeling in my stomach. Terrifying.”

Adding to his confusion were several messages on his voicemail that “congratulated” the former Buck for making what seemed to be an irreversible mistake. After placing an awkward phone call to Milwaukee Bucks general manager John Hammond, Skiles confirmed that he had, in fact, signed a four-year deal to coach the Bucks.

“It was worse than I feared – a nightmare,” Skiles recounts. “In my sober state, I can’t even conceive of being wasted enough to want to coach in Milwaukee. But I guess I was, because that’s my signature on the contract.”

After immediately checking himself into an alcohol treatment program, Skiles reflected on hitting rock bottom. “I never before thought of myself as having a drinking problem; but looking at this horrendous thing I’ve done, I realize how much help I really need.”

Since entering the treatment program Skiles has received unending support from fans, family, and most of all Larry Krystkowiak and Terry Stotts, Milwaukee’s two previous coaches – and graduates of the same treatment program.

“We’ve been there,” Krystkowiak told SSNN. “We know what it’s like to have to live with the gruesome consequences of the reckless, irresponsible behavior that comes with alcoholism.”

Now sober and determined to remain that way, Skiles realizes knows how close a call he experienced Monday night. “It brings tears to my eyes to think of what kind of disaster could have happened: I could have endangered the lives of my family by getting behind the wheel of a car, I could have become violent and hurt somebody – or worse yet, I could have taken the Knicks job. Clean and sober, that’s me from now on.”
