Former Spurs player and assistant coach, Ime Udoka, has hired another former member of Gregg Popovich’s staff. The Rockets are rebuilding their staff as they look to turn their franchise from perennial lottery team, to playoff contender.
Jeff Garcia of KENS5 reported that Ben Sullivan is joining Houston’s staff as a developmental coach. Sullivan was a video intern for San Antonio dating back to 2012, crossing over with Udoka’s time with the franchise. Sullivan worked alongside legendary shooting coach, Chip Engellend, on the Spurs scouting and development team.
He left San Antonio in 2014 to join Mike Budenholzer in Atlanta then followed him to Milwaukee in 2018.
