The Bucks are hiring assistant coaches Vince Legarza and Brad Jones to help round out their coaching staff, reports Michael Scotto of HoopsHype (Twitter link).

Legarza is a 36-year-old who got his start as a player development coach with the Hawks, where he worked alongside new Bucks coach Taylor Jenkins. Legarza then joined the Jazz as an advanced scout and assistant coach and stayed in Utah for over three years. He spent the 2022/23 season with the Bucks before working for the Suns in 2024/25.

Jones also spent three years with the Jazz, though the two didn’t overlap there. He went on to spend five seasons as a Grizzlies assistant coach, working under Jenkins at the time.

The Bucks have built a staff of coaches Jenkins is familiar with after previously hiring Patrick St. Andrews, along with Joe Boylan.
