The Bucks also fired Budenholzer after a first-round exit despite him picking up another coach of the year trophy in 2019. In the NBA, coaches always seem to be on the hot seat and shoulder the blame for whatever goes wrong in an organization. Frank Vogel, Darvin Ham, Nate McMillan and the list goes on. So, for Jenkins, who many think did a remarkable job despite his team battling injuries and his coaches getting fired right from under him, it's part of the business.
