The Bulls hired Randy Brown as director of player development Wednesday.
Brown, 41, spent the last two seasons as an assistant coach for the Sacramento Kings. He played five of his 12 seasons with the Bulls (1995-2000).
``We are excited to have Randy back in the Bulls organization,'' general Manager Gar Forman said. ``In this new role, Randy will work with players before and after practice, overseeing on-court skills development. As a former player and coach in our league, I feel Randy's experience will be of great benefit to our young players in numerous areas of their development."
Brown was on three championship teams with the Bulls, including the 1996 squad which win a league-record 72 regular-season games.
``It's great to be back with the Bulls, and come home to Chicago once again,'' Brown said. ``The Bulls are one of the best organizations in the NBA, one that I have always had a fondness for. I look forward to getting started, and working with our players to help them advance and strengthen their skills."
