Highlights from Jon Horst’s Introductory Press Conference

Related Topics: News conference, Milwaukee Bucks

The Milwaukee Bucks introduced their new GM Jon Horst this morning with owner Wes Edens sitting right besides him. The press conference was brief, only 26 minutes long and featured the usual congratulations and front office platitudes. Horst comes off as an “aw-shucks” guy, thanking individual press members for congratulating him on the position and even singling out Matt Velazquez of the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel to congratulate him on his role. His down to earth attitude feels almost too stereotypically midwestern, but one wouldn’t expect much else at an introductory press conference. His enthusiasm and verve for the impending job felt genuine, so let’s hope that carries into a job well done.
