The university head coach had been interviewed.

The Milwaukee Bucks met with the University of Houston head coach Kelvin Sampson to interview him for the available manager position at the franchise.

Kelvin, a reputable University head coach, held talks with the Bucks about the possibility of becoming their new head coach. Sampson spent 6 years in the NBA as assistant manager, as 3 of these years were with Milwaukee. After that, he returned to manage in the college basketball in 2014, making Houston a national championship challenger.

His record is 232-74 in his 9 years at Houston, including 4 straight berths in the Sweet 16, and he made it to the Final 4 in 2021. His team was ranked top in the nation most of the time during the 2022-23 campaign.

The head coach is on good terms with the Bucks’ GM, Jon Horst.
