Marshall Harris

He's worked with young and developing players.

Donny Avila is the guy in Portland who was an all-star last year under his watch after not being as successful during his time as a Wizards as one of the top picks by Washington.

I just like this as a stabilizing force.

He clearly knows how to do better than kind of a question mark, which is what a lot of these assistants are when they get this first opportunity, usually with a team.

And to be clear, Wes Unsell Jr.

has head coaching experience.

He was on Billy Donovan's staff.

He coached for the Washington Wizards.

A couple years, right?

Yeah, 21 through 24.

So there were other guys who had experience, but I like his success.

He had more success than Wes Unsell Jr., certainly, as a head coach.

And the understanding that, okay, you have a guy now.

But I was never as...

concerned about the head coaching hire as i was about what are they going to do in the nba draft which is still ahead of us but i'm glad they have a coach going into the draft at least yeah he can be a part of the conversations whether it's picking out the players and what type of offense defense he wants to run so players that fit his scheme but this is a good step for the bulls they're doing things in order you know we we had the sound coming into this from the owner michael reisdorf saying

I need you to pick the next head coach of the Bulls to Bryson Graham, which he did.

So that's the next thing.

Now they'll fill out the coaching staff.

Things are going in the right direction, I believe, for pretty much the entire city right now.

There's an upswell of feeling good.
