The Chicago Bulls hired Pete Myers as assistant coach on Fred Hoiberg’s coaching staff.
Myers, 51, returns to Chicago for his second stint with the Bulls after spending three seasons (2011-2014) with the Golden State Warriors, where he served as an assistant on former coach Mark Jackson’s staff.
Prior to his stint with the Warriors, Myers spent 12 seasons with the Bulls as an assistant coach (2001-2010) and scout (2000-01, 2011). He also served as Bulls interim head coach for two games during the 2003-04 season and one game during the 2007-08 season.
During his eight-year NBA career, Myers played for five teams, including three seasons with the Bulls (1986-87, 1993-95).
Hoiberg left Iowa State to become the Bulls’ 19th head coach on June 1. He named San Antonio Spurs assistant Jim Boylen as associate head coach last week.
