Former Lakers coach Darvin Ham joining Bucks as Doc Rivers’ top assistant
As the Lakers’ search for their next head coach continues, their former coach has found a new job.
ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski was the first to report on Monday that Darvin Ham will join Milwaukee Bucks coach Doc Rivers’ staff as the team’s top assistant.
Ham was an assistant in Milwaukee under Mike Budenholzer from 2018-22, including the 2021 NBA championship-winning Bucks team, before taking over the Lakers’ coaching reins in 2022.
Budenholzer, who now coaches the Phoenix Suns, reportedly wanted Ham to join his coaching staff there, but Ham passed on the opportunity. Ham was also an assistant on Budenholzer’s Atlanta Hawks coaching staff from 2013-18.
The Golden State Warriors also had conversations with Ham, The Athletic reported last month.
The Lakers fired Ham on May 3 after two seasons.
Ham finished his Lakers tenure with a 90-74 regular-season record and a 9-12 playoff record, with the Lakers making the postseason in both seasons, including going to the 2023 Western Conference finals.
The Nuggets swept the Lakers in the aforementioned conference finals before beating the Lakers again in five games this spring in a first-round series.
The Lakers’ month-long-plus coaching search took a significant turn when it was reported late last week that the organization was targeting Connecticut basketball coach Dan Hurley for their coaching vacancy.
Despite the Lakers reportedly offering Hurley a six-year, $70 million contract that would have made him one of the NBA’s highest-paid coaches, Hurley on Monday decided to stay with the Huskies, who have the opportunity to become the first program since UCLA to three-peat when Coach John Wooden’s Bruins won seven consecutive national titles from 1967-73.

Judge Michelle Havas sentenced Gladney to 29 years in prison on Friday, April 17. He was granted credit for more than a year’s time served and further sentenced to 14 years of extended supervision.
Arrested in Arizona after years on the run, court records show Gladney has also been ordered to pay the Milwaukee County District Attorney’s Office more than $1,800 for extradition costs.
Homicide investigation
The backstory:
The shooting happened in May 2020. Investigators said Gladney was captured on video apparently arguing with the victim, his cousin, outside a Milwaukee convenience store near 21st and Meinecke.
“It’s all on video, and it’s devastating for that family,” the marshal on the case told FOX6 when Gladney was profiled on Wisconsin’s Most Wanted. “You have a family member that shot and killed another family member.”

Prosecutors said Gladney walked away but then returned with a gun pointed directly at the victim and shot him. The victim died from his gunshot wounds at a nearby hospital. Multiple bullet casings were found at the scene.
Gladney went on the run for years. He was arrested in Arizona in January 2023, years after he was charged.
