Prunty to Lead Bucks While Jason Kidd Out Indefinitely

Milwaukee Bucks coach Jason Kidd will undergo surgery on his right hip Monday in New York and will miss significant time in the next month.

Kidd said assistant Joe Prunty will lead the Bucks in his absence and keep his responsibilities for the offense while Sean Sweeney will continue in his role as the team’s defensive guru.

Kidd said he won’t know when he can return to coaching until after the surgery.
