In his previous 14 seasons at the helm, Spoelstra has already made his mark on the HEAT record book as the winningest coach in franchise
history. Entering this season, he holds team records in wins, winning percentage and games coached. He has also been honored as the NBA’s
Eastern Conference Coach of the Month a franchise-record nine times. His 11 postseason appearances in his previous 14 seasons tie the
second-most over that span in the NBA as Spoelstra has never missed the playoffs in consecutive seasons since becoming head coach.
When Spoelstra first took over the head coaching duties in 2008, he was given the task of improving a young team that had been ravaged by
injuries the previous season and had won just 15 games. He then recorded 43 wins in his first season, the most by a first year HEAT coach in
team history, while on his way to a postseason berth. Miami became just the second team in NBA history to make the playoffs after winning 15-
or-fewer games the previous season. The only other team to do so was the 1968-69 San Diego Rockets, in which HEAT President Pat Riley
was a member of.
From 2010-14, Spoelstra took one of the most scrutinized teams and guided them to consecutive NBA Championships, four-straight Conference
Championships and four consecutive NBA Finals appearances, becoming just the third franchise in NBA history to make four consecutive NBA
Finals appearances, joining the Celtics and Lakers. It also made them just one of 10 franchises in the four major North American sports leagues
to make four consecutive trips to the league championship. Individually, Spoelstra became just the fourth head coach in NBA history to lead his
team to four-straight Finals appearances joining Red Auerbach, K.C. Jones and Pat Riley. Spoelstra also joined a very elite fraternity when he
led the HEAT to a seven-game series win over the San Antonio Spurs in the 2013 NBA Finals. Upon capturing the 2013 NBA Championship
he became one of just 13 head coaches in NBA history to have won multiple championships and only the eighth to win a championship in
consecutive seasons.
The 2012 championship culminated a compressed 2011-12 season in which Miami went 46-20 and captured its second consecutive Southeast
Division title. The regular season was highlighted by a nine-game win streak (Feb. 10-Mar. 1) with each victory a double-digit win. During that
streak the HEAT became the first team to win road games on three consecutive nights (Feb. 12-14) since December of 1979 and the first to
win each of those contests by double-digits since the 1970-71 season.
Before taking over as the sixth head coach in HEAT history, Spoelstra had served Miami in a number of roles in his first 13 years. He was
originally hired as video coordinator and over the years was promoted to assistant coach/video coordinator, assistant coach/advance scout and
assistant coach/director of scouting, a title he held during Miami’s 2006 NBA Championship, before ascending to head coach. He made a name
for himself around the league with his game preparation and superb attention to detail. In his seven seasons as the HEAT’s assistant
coach/director of scouting, he had the primary role of developing game plans for upcoming opponents. To that end, he coordinated the video
staff and advance scouts while overseeing the development of scouting reports and videos.
In 1992, he graduated from the University of Portland with a degree in communications. While attending Portland, Spoelstra was the starting
point guard for four years and was named the West Coast Conference Freshman of the Year in 1989. Upon graduating he spent two years as
a player/coach for Tus Herten, a team in the professional sports league of Germany.
He has returned to his native Philippines to host clinics and promote education, health and wellness to thousands of at-risk youth through
grassroots programs and events. The 9-day program in Manila in the summer of 2011 was the largest NBA FIT event ever hosted in Southeast
Asia under the NBA Cares umbrella. In the summer of 2012, Coach Spoelstra expanded his reach into other Southeast Asia nations by
conducting coaches clinics and other FIT activities in Singapore.
Raised in Portland, OR, Spoelstra, who was inducted into the Jesuit High School Athletic Hall of Fame in September 2009, is the first
Asian/Filipino-American head coach in any of the major North American sports leagues. Spoelstra is the son of Jon Spoelstra, a long-time NBA
executive who has guided the Portland Trail Blazers, Denver Nuggets, Buffalo Braves and New Jersey Nets. His grandfather, Watson, was a
Detroit Tigers beat writer for many years. He and his wife, Nikki, who were married in the summer of 2016, reside in Coral Gables, with their
sons Santiago and Dante and daughter, Ruby Grace.
