Prior to that he had spent three years as a player development/video assistant (2021-2024) for the Cavaliers.

Before joining the Cavs’ organization, Tibaldi worked for two seasons as an assistant coach at Cleveland State University (2017-19) and two seasons as the director of basketball operations at DePaul University (2015-17).
In 2011, Tibaldi was hired as the video coordinator for the men’s basketball program at the University of Missouri. In this role he edited game film, practice film and individual player workout films. He also assisted in the development of six players who were drafted or played in the NBA - Kim English, Phil Pressey, Jordan Clarkson, Marcus Denmon, Jabari Brown and Alex Oriakhi. He worked in this role for two years before being promoted to director of basketball operations in 2013.
Tibaldi began his career in the NBA during the 2009-10 season with the Chicago Bulls.

The 2007 graduate of Michigan State was a two-year letterwinner as a walk-on for the Spartans. Michigan State made two NCAA tournament appearances during his career. Tibaldi was named Academic All-Big Ten in 2007.
