"Billy [Donovan] is a Hall of Fame coach who not only has my respect, but the respect of the entire organization and locker room. I want it to be very clear, we want Billy to continue to be the coach of the Chicago Bulls."
"I love him and hope he's here for a long time. I want him to stay. I'm riding with him forever. He's a cornerstone for my career."
"Donovan didn't leave college basketball just to coast, he came to the NBA to win it all. He didn't get it done with the OKC Thunder, and after six seasons in Chicago, he's still chasing that first ring."
Michael Reinsdorf expressed strong support for Billy Donovan, emphasizing his Hall of Fame status and respect within the organization. Donovan's future as head coach hinges on his willingness to stay, despite being under contract. The Bulls organization appreciates Donovan's leadership, with players like Josh Giddey and Matas Buzelis expressing their desire for him to remain. Donovan, at 60, is still pursuing an NBA championship after previous stints without success, indicating his ambition to win rather than simply maintain his position.
