Boston’s brain trust just got a little more brainy. Per ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski, head coach Ime Udoka is adding Ben Sullivan to his ever-growing staff. Sullivan had served under Mike Budenholzer in Milwaukee and Atlanta as one of his top assistants and is largely credited with improving two-time MVP Giannis Antetokounmpo’s shooting. The Finals MVP shot 16 for 17 from the free throw line to clinch the NBA championship in Game 6.
Sullivan previously worked with Udoka in San Antonio as an assistant video coordinator, but his calling card has been his work on shooting mechanics.
