The Milwaukee Bucks are not going to part ways with Mike Budenholzer, despite the early second round exit vs. the Miami Heat, per Shams Charania.

“As for head coach Mike Budenholzer, he is safe, according to sources. This much is certain, though: Across the Bucks‘ leadership group, there’s an understanding everyone must learn from this season and be better. They need to continue building a winning mentality, stocking the roster with key decision-makers,” Charania wrote, per NBC Sports.

The Bucks need to become better fast, as their superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo will be an unrestricted free agent in the next offseason.

Milwaukee ended the season on a disappointing note, as the Miami Heat took over in the EC semifinals series to advance to the Conference Finals.

According to several reports, the Milwaukee Bucks are among the teams that are going to pursue a trade for veteran Chris Paul.
