The Milwaukee Bucks continue to build out their staff following the hiring of new head coach Adrian Griffin, and following the (welcome!) news that Terry Stotts would be brought in we learned today that the team is also hiring Patrick Mutombo and Joe Prunty as assistant coaches.
Mutombo also worked with new Bucks coach Adrian Griffin in Toronto. Prunty and Mutombo join a staff that will also include Terry Stotts.

First, let’s meet the newer name. Patrick Mutombo (no relation to NBA great Dikembe Mutombo) is a former NCAA Division 2 standout who ended up playing seven years professionally in Europe and the NBA G-League before switching over to coaching, where he has been active as an assistant in the NBA and G-League since 2011.
