What happened: Chris Haynes reports Baker will work under Erik Spoelstra in Miami. The move reunites Baker with Giannis Antetokounmpo, with whom he has a close bond.
Why it matters: Miami gains a coach already familiar with Antetokounmpo as the star enters his first season with the Heat. Baker also brings experience from the organization Antetokounmpo left this summer.
By the numbers: Baker’s Milwaukee tenure began in 2018 and spanned eight seasons, including the Bucks’ 2021 NBA championship.
What to watch: Baker will join Spoelstra’s staff as Miami prepares for the 2026-27 season.
