Built in 2013, the home is located on a lovely pond and has an asking price of $825,000, according to its listing.
GLENVIEW, IL — Doug Collins is known for many things. He was a member of the famed 1972 U.S. Men's Basketball team that won a silver medal following a controversial final versus Russia at the Munich Games. He coached the Chicago Bulls during Michael Jordan's early years with the team from 1986-1989. Collins is a member of the College Basketball Hall of Fame. He had a successful NBA career as a player.
Collins is also currently a resident of Glenview. This might not be a thing for much longer as a home of his is for sale. As reported by the Chicago Tribune, the three-bedroom duplex town home in Glenview went on the market Jan. 21 for $825,000.
Collins, 69, who currently serves as a senior advisor of basketball operations for the Bulls, is the father of Northwestern University men's basketball coach Chris Collins.
