The Milwaukee Bucks will send two future second round picks to the Brooklyn Nets to secure the coaching rights to Jason Kidd.

Kidd will become head coach of the Bucks, replacing Larry Drew.

The Bucks' front office was previously unaware of ownership's interest in hiring Kidd. While Kidd will be hired strictly as head coach, Adrian Wojnarowski has reported that the expectation is that he'll eventually control basketball operations.

Howard Beck of Bleacher Report indicates that Kidd and the Bucks are working on a contract that will pay him $4 million to $5 million per season and no less than three seasons. Kidd's contract is not expected to include any clause that gives him final authority over personnel.

The Milwaukee Bucks have yet to interview any candidates for the positions currently held by John Hammond and David Morway, according to sources. The jobs of those two members of the Bucks' front office are not in danger.

The Bucks are only offering a head coaching position to Jason Kidd.

A source indicated that the Bucks met with Kidd on Friday in New York.

The situation should also be resolved within the next 24 hours.

Jason Kidd has received permission to speak with the Milwaukee Bucks.

Kidd approached ownership with a series of demands, including the role of overseeing the Brooklyn Nets’ basketball operations department in addition to his head coaching responsibilities.

The source said Kidd didn’t want general manager Billy King to be dismissed, but wanted to be given a title and placed above him in the organizational hierarchy.

Sam Amick of the USA Today reports that the Bucks' front office was unaware of the franchise's interest in Kidd, which suggests it came from ownership.

Wes Edens and Marc Lasry, the Bucks' new owners, are friends with Kidd.

As an interested aside, a message board poster on RealGM broke news of the developing situation with Kidd two days before it surfaced in the media.

It was no secret that the Milwaukee Bucks and Jabari Parker shared mutual interest and the relationship became official on Thursday when the club drafted him with the No. 2 pick.

Parker smiled when the Cleveland Cavaliers took Andrew Wiggins first overall, and new Bucks owners Marc Lasry and Wesley Edens spent time at the player’s table in the green room prior to the pick.

“I was just going off what I was given,” Parker said when reminded that he said Wednesday that he expected to be in Milwaukee. “They told me that they’re all in. I can’t go in with any accusations of teams not telling me anything. I just went from what was accurate.”

Parker, who is a Chicago native, will play relatively close to home. He has yet to even put on a Bucks jersey, but moments after being drafted he pledged his allegiance to the rebuilding franchise.

“They’re a young team. I feel like I can contribute right off the bat,” Parker said. “I feel like I’m going to be able to grow with that organization, and I’m trying to be a throwback player, only stick with one team.

“This might bite me in the butt years from now, but right now I just want to stick with whoever’s rolling with me."

Jabari Parker expects to be selected second overall by the Milwaukee Bucks in Thursday's draft.

Parker said that the Bucks told him they would select him at No. 2 if he remains on the board. Parker grew up less than 100 miles away from Milwaukee in Chicago.

The Cleveland Cavaliers are considering Parker with the first overall pick and said he wouldn't be opposed to being selected by the franchise.

The Milwaukee Bucks have all but ruled out Joel Embiid with the No. 2 overall pick.

The Bucks will select either Jabari Parker or Andrew Wiggins depending on who is still available after the first overall pick.

The Bucks also like Dante Exum, but the chances of the Bucks taking him went down after Wiggins' workout on Friday.

There have been several trade calls made about the pick, but the Bucks feel like they need a franchise player and are unlikely to still draft one by trading down.

A source says Jabari Parker strongly prefers to play for the Milwaukee Bucks, something that the Cleveland Cavaliers appear to be aware of.

Parker worked out for the Cavaliers on Friday and two sources said he seemed indifferent. One source thought Parker "tanked" the workout.

"Jabari wasn't himself," one source said. "It was clear we weren't his first option."

But the Cavaliers are still leaning toward taking Parker over Andrew Wiggins.

The Sacramento Kings have had interest in trading the No. 8 pick in the NBA Draft, with Dennis Schröder and Brandon Knight as targets.

The Kings are looking to add a player that can contribute in a meaningful way immediately.

Marcus Smart could be a good fit if they keep the pick.

The Milwaukee Bucks would like to upgrade the point guard position while moving Brandon Knight to shooting guard, which has made Dante Exum their wild card at No. 2.

There has been the perceived belief that the Bucks would choose Jabari Parker or Joel Embiid depending on who remains on the board after the Cleveland Cavaliers draft first.

Exum will have a workout for the Bucks this weekend.
