5 NBA coaches who can replace Mike Budenholzer at Milwaukee Bucks

#3 Charles Lee

After getting rid of Mike Budenholzer, the Milwaukee Bucks could look to one of his assistant coaches as the new shot-caller for the team. Charles Lee has been with the Bucks since 2018 and is very familiar with the players.

Lee has been interviewed on several occasions by some teams for head coaching vacancies. The LA Lakers, before hiring Darvin Ham, were rumored to have seriously considered Lee as well.

Ham has proven to be capable of leading a team while calling the plays. Charles Lee might be just as ready as the Bucks’ bench tactician.

#2 Frank Vogel

If the Milwaukee Bucks are looking for a veteran champion coach, then Frank Vogel should be the one they should call. Vogel led the LA Lakers to the 2020 championship and has been one of the top coaches in the NBA.

Vogel may have been unfairly blamed by the Lakers for their dismal campaign last season. His team usually plays tough defense and he’s not afraid of the bright lights.

#1 Nick Nurse

Nick Nurse is another champion coach who has been fired. The Toronto Raptors let him go this season, but he will not likely be without a job in the NBA for long.

Nurse is one of the most creative and competitive coaches in the league. He could unlock a part of Giannis Antetokounmpo’s game that could bring back the Milwaukee Bucks to the NBA finals.
