The Bulls are hiring former NBA guard — and former Bull — E’Twaun Moore as a scout, tweets K.C. Johnson of NBC Sports Chicago. Moore hails from East Chicago, Indiana, which is approximately 18 miles from downtown Chicago, Illinois.
Moore, 35, was last under contract in 2021/22 with Orlando, though he didn’t appear in any regular season games for the Magic. He was waived in February 2022 to make room on Orlando’s roster just before the trade deadline.
The 55th pick of the 2011 draft after starring in college at Purdue, Moore spent 11 seasons in the NBA with Boston, Orlando, Chicago, New Orleans and Phoenix. He played for the Bulls from 2014-16.
Moore hasn’t officially announced his retirement from playing, but he’s been out of the league for two consecutive seasons now. As of January 2023, Moore was still working out in the hope of receiving a call from an NBA team; however, he was also preparing for his post-playing career, including some successful investments.
The 6’3″ guard averaged 7.9 points, 2.0 rebounds and 1.8 assists on .455/.388/.742 shooting in 598 regular season games over the course of his career, including 191 starts (21.0 minutes per contest).
Lol
Being an nba scout seems fun, best of luck to him
Fun? If you mess up you get fired and then what do you do? Drive an ice cream van like that guy from the Rockets. No thank you! Lot of pressure. Plus you can’t watch basketball only like individual movements they make like how they move their hand
Bulls need great scout to get better young player in the draft,then this…. Jerry oh jerry…..
He was one of thibs’ favorites, a hard worker with good fundamentals. Sort of Javonte Green with no bounce. Might actually be good if what he is doing is advance scouting opposing teams rather than young prospects.
True, like a less explosive Javonte with better ball-handling and less finishing. Loved watching both of them, etwaun was a smart player who would’ve fit rly well on a contending team.
