The Milwaukee Bucks are (or ought to be) the hottest job on the market for aspiring NBA head coaches. The team made it known that they would be conducting a thorough search, and the first round of interviews included recognizable names that made many fans (but not all, to be clear) excited. That list included:
- Ettore Messina (assistant in San Antonio)
- David Blatt (free agent, previously HC in Cleveland)
- Becky Hammon (assistant in San Antonio)
The names on this list provide a variety of strengths and weaknesses; each possibility has distinct pros and significant cons.
