Bucks get Nets’ Kidd

The Bucks and Brooklyn Nets agreed to a deal Monday allowing Jason Kidd to become Milwaukee’s coach, a person with knowledge of the details said. The Bucks then paved the way for Kidd by firing coach Larry Drew later Monday. The Nets will receive a second-round draft pick in 2015 that was formerly their own, and another in 2019 belonging to either Milwaukee or Sacramento. The person spoke to the Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the deal has not been announced. Drew went 15-67 in his only season in Milwaukee, but there had been no indication he wouldn’t be back before the Kidd situation emerged. Kidd went 44-38 in his only season as Nets coach, but then sought control of the basketball operations department and was denied. -AP
