Tiago Splitter novi je glavni trener Chicago Bullsa . Brazilski stručnjak preuzeo je klupu slavne NBA franšize te postao 25. trener u povijesti Bullsa.
Splitter na toj poziciji nasljeđuje Billyja Donovana , koji je napustio Bullse nakon šest sezona bez značajnijeg rezultatskog iskoraka. Njegovo imenovanje pozdravili su i klupski čelnici, a izvršni dopredsjednik košarkaških operacija Bullsa Bryson Graham istaknuo je razloge zbog kojih je upravo Splitter dobio povjerenje.
“Uzbuđeni smo što možemo poželjeti dobrodošlicu Tiaga u Chicago Bullse”, kazao je Graham. “Tijekom našeg procesa izbora, Tiago se izdvojio svojim košarkaškim intelektom, sposobnošću da se poveže s igračima i učini ih boljima. Bio je pobjednik na svim razinama ove igre i kao igrač i kao trener i to na više kontinenata”, dodao je jedan od čelnih ljudi u Bullsima.
Splitter iza sebe ima raznoliko trenersko iskustvo. Prošle sezone vodio je Portland Trail Blazerse kao privremeni trener te s omjerom 42-40 izborio nastup u doigravanju kroz play-in turnir. Blazersi su tako prekinuli četverogodišnji post bez nastupa u playoffu, no njihov je put završio već u prvom krugu protiv San Antonio Spursa .
Prije toga radio je kao pomoćni trener u Brooklyn Netsima i Houston Rocketsima , a sezonu 2024./25. proveo je na klupi Paris Basketballa . S pariškim klubom osvojio je naslov francuskog prvaka te izborio plasman u četvrtfinale Eurolige.
Kao igrač ostavio je dubok trag u NBA ligi. Tijekom karijere odigrao je 355 utakmica, najvećim dijelom u dresu Spursa, s kojima je 2014. godine osvojio naslov NBA prvaka.
