The Milwaukee Bucks have fired coach Mike Budenholzer after a stunning first-round playoff loss to the Miami Heat spoiled a season in which they owned the NBA’s best record.
Budenholzer’s ouster comes just two years after he directed the Bucks to their first NBA title in a half-century. The move also comes three weeks after the NBA finalized Cleveland Browns owner Jimmy Haslam’s purchase of a 25% stake in the team.“The decision to make this change was very difficult,” Bucks general manager Jon Horst said Thursday in a statement. “Bud helped lead our team for five incredible seasons, to the Bucks’ first title in 50 years, and into an era of sustained success.
Bucks coach Mike Budenholzer reacts during the first half of Game 1 of a first-round playoff game against the Heat on April 16, 2023, in Milwaukee. The Bucks fired Budenholzer on Thursday, just two years after he directed them to an NBA title. “There’s a ton of disappointment when your season ends, no matter how it happens,” Budenholzer said afterward. “It’s a hard feeling. It’s a disappointing feeling.”
