BRANFORD, CONN. -

Premier Auto Group president Robert Alvine said Scott Burrell is a household name in Connecticut.

Burrell is currently the men’s basketball head coach at Southern Connecticut State University and played professionally for 12 years, winning an NBA championship with the 1997-1998 Chicago Bulls.

Now, Burrell will serve as a consultant for Premier Auto Group, providing feedback on different vehicle models. The auto group operates four Connecticut locations.

In addition to driving different models and providing feedback on various new cars and SUVs, Burrell will work with Alvine and the Premier Auto Group team on the company’s various not-for-profit initiatives with organizations such as Camp Rising Sun, which is a camp for children with cancer.

“He might be a basketball star, and an extremely talented coach, but he’s also a husband, father and homeowner right here in Connecticut,” Alvine said in a news release. “His input as to how our vehicles perform on a daily basis, and in real-world situations will be extremely helpful.”
