“We are very happy to welcome Billy and his family to the Chicago Bulls,” Karnishov said in the press release. – The success you have maintained throughout your career is amazing. We believe in their ability to get the most out of young players both individually and as a team. Both as a player and as a coach, Billy has won everywhere in his career, so we hope he continues to do so in Chicago. “
Donovan shared the title of Best Coach of the Year this season with Milwaukee Bucks quarterback Mike Budenholzer. The award was established by the NBA Coaches Association and was attended by the head coaches of all 30 teams.
In his freshman year, NBA Donovan led the Thunder to the Western Conference finals, and overall, the Oklahoma team he coached has always made the playoffs over the five years.
