William Henry (Bill) Hanzlik (born December 6 1957 in Middletown, Ohio) is a former professional basketball player and coach. A 6'7" guard, Hanzlik played college ball at the University of Notre Dame, and was selected with the 20th pick of the 1980 NBA Draft, by the Seattle SuperSonics. Hanzlik played in the NBA for ten years--two with the Sonics, and eight with the Denver Nuggets. He was a 1986 All-Defense second team selection.

In 1997, Hanzlik (then an assistant with Denver) was tabbed to replace Dick Motta as the head coach. He coached the Nuggets for one year, posting an 11-71 record (only two games better than the all-time worst team, the 1972-1973 Philadelphia 76ers). He was fired at the end of the season and replaced with Mike D'Antoni.
