The Milwaukee Bucks fired head coach Mike Budenholzer after his fifth season with the franchise, the team announced.

Budenholzer compiled a regular season record of 391-271 (.693 winning percentage) over his five campaigns in Milwaukee. He oversaw the team's championship run in 2021.

"The decision to make this change was very difficult," Bucks general manager Jon Horst said. "Bud helped lead our team for five incredible seasons, to the Bucks’ first title in 50 years, and into an era of sustained success. We are grateful for the culture of winning and leadership that Bud helped create in Milwaukee."
