ROB FODOR

Shooting Coach/Player Development Coach

Rob Fodor begins his eighth season with the HEAT and his fifth in the role of Shooting Coach/ Player Development Coach. He is the first full-time Shooting Coach in franchise history and since his arrival the HEAT have recorded their seven highest single-season totals for three-point field goals made.

Fodor has spent over 30 years around the game of basketball, serving as an entrepreneur and
consultant. His resume includes time spent coaching and teaching shooting in Norway, Germany, Spain, Singapore and Slovenia. Additionally, he’s served as the personal shooting instructor for former HEAT players Tim Hardaway, Alonzo Mourning, Jim Jackson and Mike James among many others and has served coaching stints with both the WNBA’s Seattle Storm and the now defunct Florida Pit Bulls of the ABA. Joining the HEAT proved to be an easy transition as he has worked with Head Coach Erik Spoelstra over the years, assisting with camps and player development at his academy. Fodor is the owner of The Shooting Guy, a basketball website dedicated to the science of player development.

A native of Detroit (MI), Fodor graduated from Hillsdale College (MI) where he majored in history and minored in psychology and physical education. He was a starter all four years at Hillsdale and still owns the school record for career assists.

Fodor resides in Coconut Grove.
