Former Pack Ast. HC Lutz Joins Windy City Bulls Staff

Former NC State Associate Head Coach Bobby Lutz was announced as an assistant coach with the Windy City Bulls of the NBA Development League on Friday. Lutz will begin his position with the Bulls in November.

Lutz spent five seasons with the Pack. He joined the program in 2011 as an assistant coach as part of head coach Mark Gottfried’s first staff at NC State. After one season, he was elevated to the associate head coach position for his final four seasons with the Wolfpack.

NC State won 108 games in five years with Lutz on staff and advanced to the NCAA Tournament four consecutive times, including trips to the Sweet 16 in 2012 and 2015.

After five seasons with the Wolfpack basketball program, Lutz became the Special Assistant to the Deputy Athletic Director for External Operations in April.

Lutz was the head coach at UNC-Charlotte from 1999-2010. He led the 49ers to three Conference USA titles while averaging more than 18 wins per season. Lutz was a finalist for the Jim Phelan National Coach of the Year award in 2005 and is the school’s all-time winningest coach.

The Windy City Bulls are preparing for their inaugural season in the NBA Development League. The NBA D-League is entering its 16th season and has expanded to 22 teams.
