Summary
The Chicago Bulls just hired Tiago Splitter as head coach — a surprising move fueled by his Spurs championship pedigree and his reputation as a “smart” center. Though he never won individual awards, Splitter was a vital cog in San Antonio’s title runs, excelling in efficiency around the basket and rim protection. His European roots shaped a disciplined, post-game that could elevate young Bulls bigs like Buzelis and Essengue. And with Josh Giddey, Splitter’s history of mentoring point guards offers hope for unlocking the guard’s full potential — all while bringing championship DNA to a team in rebuild mode.
