Taylor Jenkins is reportedly finalizing his contract as head coach of the Milwaukee Bucks after Doc Rivers resigned following a disappointing season for the team. The team's performance was disappointing, with a 32-50 record this year and a lack of playoff qualification. The Bucks also face a potentially dire long-term issue as they do not have full control of their first-round draft pick until 2031 following previous trades for Lillard and Jrue Holiday. The situation surrounding Giannis Antetokounmpo's situation is uncertain as to whether the team requested him to participate in a group workout earlier this week and the NBA is investigating the issue. Despite this, Jenkins is familiar with the team after serving as an assistant coach before taking the head coaching position with the Memphis Grizzlies.
