Josh Giddey agrees to 4-year, $100M extension with Bulls - ESPN

Restricted free agent Josh Giddey has reached agreement on a four-year, $100 million contract to re-sign with the Chicago Bulls, agent Daniel Moldovan of Lighthouse Sports Management told ESPN on Tuesday.

The deal is fully guaranteed and contains no player or team options.

Giddey, 22, cements himself as the Bulls' cornerstone at starting point guard, following the franchise landing him via trade with the Oklahoma City Thunder for Alex Caruso during the 2024 offseason.

Giddey is coming off a career season in Chicago, scoring 14.6 points per game while averaging career-highs in rebounds (8.1), assists (7.2), steals (1.2) and 3-point field goal percentage (37.8%). He posted seven triple-doubles, the second-most in a campaign in Bulls history, trailing Michael Jordan in 1988-89 (15).

Giddey's performances went to a higher level after the All-Star Break and the trade of All-Star guard Zach LaVine. The 6-foot-8 product shined as a leader of the Bulls, averaging 21.2 points, 10.7 rebounds and 9.3 assists on 50% shooting, including 46% on 3-pointers.

On March 22 against the Los Angeles Lakers, Giddey became the first player with 15 points, 15 assists, 10 rebounds and eight steals in an NBA game since steals became an official stat in 1973-74. The Bulls had a 15-5 finish to last season to secure a Play-In Tournament berth; Giddey played in 13 of those games and averaged 20.6 points, 10.7 rebounds and 9.7 assists over that span.

For the final month of the season, he played through a muscle tear in the palm of his right, shooting hand.

Giddey was the No. 6 pick in the 2021 NBA draft to Oklahoma City, and he quickly showcased an ability to fill the stat sheet. Giddey remains the youngest player in NBA history to record a
