CHICAGO (AP) — The Chicago Bulls signed guard Josh Giddey to a new multiyear contract Tuesday.
The Bulls did not disclose financial terms. Reports said it was for $100 million over four years.
Chicago acquired the 6-foot-8, 214-pound Giddey in a trade from Oklahoma City in June 2024. He became one of three NBA players to have at least 1,002 points, 566 rebounds and 503 assists along with LeBron James and Nikola Jokic.
He averaged 14.6 points and a career-high 8.1 rebounds. He led the Bulls with 7.2 assists, starting 69 of 70 games. Giddey also joined Michael Jordan as the only Chicago players to average at least 14 points, 8 rebounds and 7 assists in a single season.
The sixth pick overall in the 2021 draft, the Australian native had 30 double-doubles and seven triple-doubles. He also made a career-high 105 3s helping Chicago set a franchise record with 1,271 made 3-pointers in a single season.
