Bulls add former Rockets assistant coach Roy Rogers to staff on 3-year deal

The Bulls have filled the assistant coach opening left by former longtime Bulls assistant coach Pete Myers’ resignation from the organization.

Former Rockets assistant Roy Rogers has agreed to a three-year deal to join the Bulls as an assistant coach. Rogers’ contract lines up with Jim Boylen’s multi-year extension to remain the Bulls’ head coach.

Rogers, 45, spent the last three seasons on Rockets coach Mike D’Antoni’s staff before becoming the second of four assistant coaches who were told they wouldn’t receive a new contract for the 2019-20 season. He also had stints with the Nets (2013-14) and Wizards (2014-16) as an assistant coach after spending time with the Pistons, Celtics and coaching in G League during the mid-2000s.
