(LEARFIELD) – New Bucks head coach Taylor Jenkins didn’t come from the bargain store.
Yahoo Sports reports that he has signed a multi-year contract worth more than 10 million dollars per season.
He’s not the highest-paid NBA coach, but he’s near the top of the list.
Jenkins coached the Memphis Grizzlies for six seasons, reaching the playoffs four times, and led the team to a franchise-record 56 wins four seasons ago.
He was an assistant under Mike Budenholzer, and he was in Milwaukee as Giannis Antetokounmpo was developing into a two-time NBA Most Valuable Player.
The Milwaukee Bucks will introduce new head coach Taylor Jenkins at a press conference on Wednesday, May 6, at 2 p.m. at the Milwaukee Art Museum (700 N. Art Museum Dr.).
Jenkins will be introduced alongside Bucks co-owner Jimmy Haslam and Bucks General Manager Jon Horst. The press conference will also be livestreamed at www.Bucks.com/Live and www.YouTube.com/Bucks.
