The Milwaukee Bucks are undergoing a significant coaching change as they part ways with Adrian Griffin. This surprising development comes despite the team’s impressive 30-13 record, which is currently tied for the second-best in the NBA. Griffin, who took on the role of head coach just last June, is experiencing an unexpected departure.
The team’s decision is influenced by a noticeable decline in defensive performance under Griffin’s leadership. While the Bucks boast an outstanding 120.6 offensive rating, the second-best in the league, their defensive rating has plummeted to 116.8, ranking 22nd. This marks a stark contrast to the team’s fourth-best defense in the previous season.
