CBS Sports on Milwaukee Coaching Search:
Charles Lee
Don't worry, we'll get to the big names momentarily. For now, we have to start with the Budenholzer tree, which has become one of the most common sources of NBA head coaches in recent years. Quin Snyder and Taylor Jenkins both built perennial winners after leaving Budenholzer, and Darvin Ham has the Los Angeles Lakers competing for a championship in his first year as a head coach. With that in mind, the Bucks might keep an open mind when it comes to hiring a first-year coach, and there's a potential fit already on their bench.
Charles Lee, Budenholzer's associate head coach, has interviewed for several jobs in recent years and is currently in the running to take over the Detroit Pistons. Just 38 years old, Lee would be one of the NBA's youngest head coaches, but that doesn't mean he lacks experience. He's worked for Budenholzer since 2014 and could keep the bulk of his system in place while making the few necessary tweaks the Bucks would need to make it back over the hump. That approach has proven to be a viable formula in the past. It worked out pretty well for the next candidate on this list.
