The latest Milwaukee Bucks Daily is here as the Bucks reportedly open up a wider search for their now vacant general manager’s position.

In this latest edition of the Milwaukee Bucks Daily, we take a closer look at the reports of the Bucks’ decision to initiate an extensive search to identify their new general manager.

All of this would have seemed quite unlikely only a few days ago, but now the Bucks face a number of vital decisions for the team’s future even ahead of the important junctures of the draft and free agency.

If you want to stay on top of all of the news surrounding that in the coming weeks and months, check in with us every morning in this column as we’ll round up anything you may have missed from us at Behind the Buck Pass on the previous day, as well as our picks from elsewhere.
