Milwaukee Bucks coach Jason Kidd is returning to the bench to resume his coaching duties next week, league sources told ESPN on Thursday.

Kidd, who underwent hip surgery shortly before Christmas, plans to return next week -- ahead of schedule -- as the Bucks return from a four-game road trip that still has stops Friday and Saturday in Houston and New Orleans.

The Bucks are 8-7 under interim coach Joe Prunty in the 15 games Kidd has missed so far, including wins in Charlotte and Miami to get off to a 2-0 start on this trip.
