After a disappointing half season in 2017-18, Milwaukee Bucks wants to go to a different route and immediately fire Head Coach Jason Kidd on Monday January 22, 2018 as per Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN.com.
Bucks general manager Jon Horst confirmed the move, the team released a statement via the team's official site:
"We believe that a fresh approach and a change in leadership are needed to continue elevating our talented team towards the next level, bringing us closer to our goal of competing for championships. Jason led a historic turnaround during his first season and would guide our team to two playoff appearances. He also played a meaningful role in helping to keep the Bucks in Milwaukee. We thank him for all of his contributions and wish him the best."
Joe Prunty will take over as the interim coach, beginning with Monday's game against the Phoenix Suns.
