Abbott, as noted in the original IG post, has been on the Bulls staff. He was hired by Billy Donovan in 2020-21 as a player development coach.
Prior to that, Abbott was a development coach for the Sixers in the 2018-19 season. That season also happened to be the final season JJ Redick spent on the Sixers, which likely led to the relationship between the two initially forming. Abbott also spent a season as a coach in the G League in 2018-19 with the Delaware Blue Coats, an incredible team name.
Prior to that, Abbott had a playing career that began at Arizona State before stops across Europe.
