While Justin Zanik had been expected to become general manager of the Milwaukee Bucks, the franchise is opening up their search. Zanik will have an opportunity to interview for the job.

John Hammond left the Bucks one season earlier than expected to become general manager of the Orlando Magic.

Rod Thorn will lead the search on behalf of the Bucks' ownership group.

Zanik has been described incorrectly as the GM in waiting. Zanik was never promised the position by the Bucks when he left the Utah Jazz.
