“At this time we feel it’s in the best interest of the organization to seek a new coach to lead our team,” said Bucks general manager John Hammond in a statement. “We appreciate Jim’s efforts not only in his time as head coach, but in his entire tenure as a coach in Milwaukee.”

The 58-year-old Boylan took over as coach for Scott Skiles after Skiles left the club in early January. Boylan went 22-28, leading the Bucks to the eighth seed in the NBA Eastern Conference playoffs, where they were swept in four games by the defending NBA champion Miami Heat.
