Well I guess we all look dumb, huh. Nobody guessed this name, as the Bulls appear to be going outside of their own building with their latest assistant coaching hire.
First reported by Woj and confirmed by KC Johnson, Boylen’s lead assistant is Chris Fleming, who was on the Brooklyn Nets staff this past season.
Fleming is relatively inexperienced at the NBA level, previously doing the bulk of his coaching in Germany. He has been with the Nets for 3 seasons and also spent 1 season in Denver.
There is this minor connection to Boylen: Fleming was on the 2014 Spurs Summer league staff with Boylen.
