Just days after announcing that they are parting ways with Frank Vogel, the Phoenix Suns have announced they will be signing Mike Budenholzer to be their new head coach.

The Suns and Budenholzer reportedly agreed to a 5-year, $50 million deal according to The Athletic’s Shams Charania.

After just one season with the team, Phoenix now dismisses Frank Vogel after a disappointing 2023-2024 season. The Suns finished 6th seed in the West with a 49-33 record but got swept in the first round, 4-0, by the Minnesota Timberwolves.

Now, Phoenix pivots into a tactician on the sidelines to call the shots for their superstar trio Bradley Beal, Devin Booker, and Kevin Durant.

Budenholzer, a two-time Coach of the Year winner with the Milwaukee Bucks, will take over the team immediately to try and reform its identity. Budenholzer has been known as a very solid offensive coach and it will be interesting to see how he tinkers with all the firepower at his disposal.
