Bucks Mike Budenholzer Wins Coach of the Year at NBA Awards

Bucks head coach Mike Budenholzer was named Coach of the Year at the NBA Awards in Santa Monica, Calif. on Monday.

Monday's honor marked Budenholzer's second Coach of the Year award in the last five seasons. He was named Coach of the Year in 2014-15 after leading the Hawks to a 60–22 record.

Budenholzer is just the third active coach to have multiple Coach of the Year honors. Gregg Popovich has won the award three times while Mike D'Antoni is a two-time winner.

Milwaukee won a league-best 60 games in 2018-19 before losing to the Raptors in the Eastern Conference finals.
