Phoenix Suns assistant coach Patrick Mutombo leaving for Milwaukee Bucks
Phoenix Suns assistant coach Patrick Mutombo won't be returning to the team next season to be on Frank Vogel's staff.
ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski reported on Thursday that Mutombo is joining the Milwaukee Bucks to work under their new head coach Adrian Griffin.
Mutombo came to Phoenix in June 2022 to join former coach Monty Williams' staff to be its bench coach.
Williams was fired on May 13, and replaced by Vogel on June 2.
Mutombo's most recent role before he arrived in Phoenix was when coached the Toronto Raptors 905 team to the G League's best record for the two previous years, and was the Coach of the Year runner-up in both of those seasons.
He was a member of the Toronto Raptors' coaching staff under head coach Nick Nurse, who is now in that same role with the Philadelphia 76ers, from 2016 to 2020.
