The Bucks will be in the market for a new head coach as a summer of change likely begins.

Doc Rivers is departing the franchise after a disappointing 32-50 season, ESPN reported Sunday night.

The Bucks lost their regular-season finale to the 76ers 126-120.

Rivers was 97-103 over three seasons in Milwaukee, including two first-round exits and a postseason-less campaign this year. He had one year remaining on his contract.

The season included star Giannis Antetokounmpo playing just 36 games because of injuries, demanding a trade and then feuding with the organization over if he was healthy enough to return to action.
