Could Miami Heat Assistant Chris Quinn Be On List Of Replacements For Mike Budenholzer In Milwaukee?
When a coach is fired in any sport, it creates a domino effect.
A job opened when the Milwaukee Bucks fired coach Mike Budenholzer Thursday. It could affect a lot of teams, including the Miami Heat. The website www.betonline.ag listed Heat assistant Chris Quinn as having the sixth-best odds (6/1) to replace Budenholzer. Bucks assistant Charles Lee had the best odds (2/1), followed by former Raptors coach Nick Nurse (3/1).
Although the chances of landing the Bucks job is unlikely, Quinn is drawing interest from teams around the league. The Detroit Pistons have already requested permission to interview him.
Quinn, a former Heat player, is the latest in the line of assistants to become a hot commodity. David Fizdale and Juwan Howard were the most recent departures.
Quinn is in his ninth year with the Heat. Last year he filled in for coach Erik Spoelstra when he was in the league's health and safety protocols.
