Bucks Hire Former Assistant Coach Adrian Griffin as Head Coach
- Adrian Griffin has been an assistant coach for 15 years with several teams, most recently with the Toronto Raptors.
- Griffin will replace Mike Budenholzer, who was fired after the Bucks were upset in the first round of the playoffs.
- The Bucks are looking to avoid more early playoff exits and keep their championship window open with key players potentially becoming free agents.
- Griffin has the endorsement of Giannis Antetokounmpo and will need to implement new offensive and defensive schemes.
- The hiring of Griffin could set off a chain reaction of other head coaching hires across the league.
