For the 48-year-old Griffin, the engagement in Milwaukee will be the first time in the role of a head coach in the NBA. He was Nick Nurse’s assistant with the Raptors for the past five seasons and contributed to the league triumph in 2019, having previously been a member of the coaching staffs at Oklahoma, Orlando and Chicago.
After nine seasons in five different NBA teams, Griffin began his coaching career in 2008 as an assistant to Scott Skiles in Milwaukee.
The 53-year-old Budenholzer finished with the Bucks after five seasons, during which he advanced to the playoffs each time and led the team to the title in 2021. This season, Milwaukee won the regular season, but the team around star Janis Adetokunba was eliminated in five games by Miami in the first round of the playoffs.
