The Philadelphia 76ers lost a piece of their coaching staff early in this 2024 offseason with free agency set to begin in just roughly two weeks.
Coach Nick Nurse put together a solid coaching staff in his first season in Philadelphia and it helped them navigate through a tough season filled with injuries and adversity. Despite superstar big man Joel Embiid missing 43 games, the Sixers still finished 47-35 and were able to earn a playoff spot as the No. 7 seed in the East.
Jason Love, a player development coach for Nurse, was a key part of that success. After five overall seasons with the Sixers, Love will now head to Milwaukee to join Doc Rivers and the Bucks.
Per HoopsHype’s Michael Scotto:
In other 76ers news, assistant coach Jason Love is headed to the Milwaukee Bucks to reunite with coach Doc Rivers, league sources told HoopsHype.
Love is a Philadelphia native and played internationally from 2011-through-2018. He played his collegiate ball at Xavier and will now take his coaching chops to Milwaukee and help Rivers get the Bucks back on track.
