Doctor makes Bullets' house call

The Brisbane Bullets have added Dr. Markus Klusemann to the club as Assistant Coach and Head of High Performance.

“Markus’ holistic approach and track record of helping the best players in the world perform at their best is a perfect fit for our club,” new coach Will Weaver said.

“He will help us make the Bullets an entirely integrated, evidence-based professional basketball club.”

Former Next Star and now-NBA player Alex Sarr previously worked with Dr. Klusemann at Overtime Elite (OTE) where the Australian-German coach directed the health, performance and athlete development program.

Most recently, Dr. Klusemann served as Head Coach and High-Performance Manager for the Frankfurt Skyliners Juniors in Germany's Pro B league, collaborating with Bullets' big, Jacob Holt.

In Australia, Klusemann served as an Assistant Coach at Basketball Australia's Centre of Excellence after completing his PhD in Sport Science at the AIS.

"Joining the Bullets at this stage is a great opportunity to use my diverse experiences to help drive the organisation forward," Klusemann said.

“With Will’s leadership and strong support from the city, there’s a high ceiling here and I can't wait to get started.”
