Those keeping a keen eye on the Milwaukee Bucks may have noticed that Donnie Walsh has stepped down from his position as CEO of the Indiana Pacers.

Walsh is considered by some to be a leading candidate to take over the Bucks' basketball operations following the dismissal or general manager Larry Harris last week.

The 67-year-old had an impressive tenure with the Pacers, which began in 1984. The Bucks, if they are interested, will have some competition. Reports circulated last week that Walsh is a leading candidate to take over the woeful New York Knicks.
