Giannis Antetokounmpo posted a message to his Instagram account thanking Mike Budenholzer for his five seasons coaching the Milwaukee Bucks along with photos of the two embracing after winning the 2021 NBA Finals.

"Thank you for five meaningful years Coach," Antetokounmpo wrote. "We accomplished something unbelievable and I'm forever grateful."

The Bucks parted ways with Budenholzer last week following their first round exit.

Budenholzer also posted a farewell message to his Instagram account this week, thanking the city of Milwaukee and Bucks organization.

"It's been an incredible five years for me and my family," Budenholzer said on Instagram. "The city of Milwaukee and the entire Bucks organization took us in and treated us like we were part of their own family.

"Together we won a lot. Together we won an NBA championship. The first championship in 50 years. The memories of the parade, watching the entire city celebrating with the players and staff as the buses made their way through the streets of Milwaukee, that is something we will all cherish forever."
