Milwaukee Bucks

Jason Kidd took over as the Milwaukee Bucks’ head coach this season after being with the Brooklyn Nets last year, and he has done an amazing job with the young team. They have been struggling a bit lately, but they are still figuring out their chemistry after trading away Brandon Knight and bringing in Michael Carter-Williams

They are currently the sixth seed in the Eastern Conference with a 34-30 record, and haven’t even had rookie Jabari Parker for the majority of the season due to a torn ACL.

Milwaukee wasn’t expected to be anything close to a playoff caliber team this season, but they have completely shocked everyone.

Part of their success is due to Kidd teaching them fundamentals and teamwork.

Needless to say, it will be very intriguing to see what they do throughout the remainder of the season. They are without question capable of making the playoffs and being a team to keep an eye on. Kidd has them on the right track and they are one of the best up-and-coming teams in the league.
