The Milwaukee Bucks reportedly are eyeing Warriors associate head coach Kenny Atkinson for their vacant head coaching job.

The Bucks were granted permission to interview Atkinson, ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski reported Wednesday, citing sources, and Milwaukee associate head coach Charles Lee and former Charlotte Hornets coach James Borrego also will be in the mix for the job.

The Bucks fired Mike Budenholzer after the franchise fell in the first round of the 2023 NBA playoffs.
