Bucks fire assistants Eric Hughes, Tim Grgurich

With the ouster of head coach Jason Kidd on Monday, it was reasonable to assume that his coaching staff would not stay intact for long.

The first dominoes fell Tuesday night when assistant coaches Eric Hughes and Tim Grgurich were relieved of their duties, a team source confirmed.

Both men joined the Bucks following Kidd's arrival in 2014. Hughes spent the 2013-'14 season on Kidd's staff with the Brooklyn Nets. Before joining with Kidd, Hughes spent six seasons in Toronto as an assistant where he helped develop current all-star starter DeMar DeRozan.

Grgurich, a 75-year-old basketball guru, is well known across the country for his work at both the college and pro levels. He spent 12 years as an assistant coach at UNLV before jumping to the NBA, where he made numerous stops as an assistant, including a previous stint in Milwaukee in 2001-'02.

Grgurich does not appear in the team's media guide and is known for operating quietly behind the scenes, but his love of and knowledge about the game have endeared him to many players throughout the years.
