On Saturday, ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski reported that the Milwaukee Bucks have hired former Toronto Raptors assistant coach Adrian Griffin as the next head coach.
Griffin had a 12-year playing career from 1996-2008. Griffin started off his career playing minor-league basketball before spending his final nine years playing in the NBA.
Griffin started his coaching career in Milwaukee as an assistant coach under head coach Scott Skiles from 2008-2010. Griffin then had assistant jobs for the Chicago Bulls (2010-15), Orlando Magic (2015-16), Oklahoma City Thunder (2016-18), and Toronto Raptors, where he’s been the lead assistant coach for Nick Nurse for the past five seasons.
