On a night when the Bulls franchise honored Derrick Rose and raised his #1 to the United Center rafters, the home team beat Boston 114-111 with a last second triple from Kevin Huerter. For the Celtics, they split the back-to-back nailbiters after winning in double OT last night in Brooklyn, but fall to 10-14 in […]

The Celtics roll into Chicago looking to extend a winning rhythm, but the Bulls are in a groove as well. Boston had to dig deep last night, and they’ll have to again on the second half of a back-to-back. Fatigue may be a factor, but the Celtics have a key contributor returning. Here are three […]

Former three-time All-Star Chicago Bulls point guard Derrick Rose , whose MVP prime was cruelly cut down by a series of knee injuries, will get his annual United Center tribute on Saturday night, after a Bulls home clash against the Boston Celtics. This time, his No. 1 jersey is being hung in the rafters, alongside Michael Jordan ‘s No. 33, Scottie Pippen ‘s No. 23, Bob Love’s No. 10, and Jerry Sloan’s No. 4.
It’s set to be...

Frustrated All-Stars Giannis Antetokounmpo and Ja Morant have been the subject of trade chatter all year. Now, they’re both going to be hurt through this season’s impending Feb. 5 trade deadline. So how will their new injuries affect the NBA at large — and our Chicago Bulls in particular — with trade season in full swing?
Antetokounmpo, a 10-time All-Star power forward, appears to be trapped on a doomed 18-26 Milwaukee Bucks roster that lacks control over most of its future draft picks an...

The NBA rumor mill is running on overtime, but any real transactions are still waiting to be called into the league office. Chicago Bulls vets Coby White , Nikola Vučević , Zach Collins , and Kevin Huerter have all been prime candidates to be moved ahead of the Feb. 5 trade deadline, yet with less than two weeks to go, even the faintest whispers are starting to feel more like wishful thinking than certainty.
A wave of recent reports has centered around Coby White, Ayo Dosunmu , and Tre Jo...

The Celtics could be without Jaylen Brown and Neemias Queta when they face the Chicago Bulls on Saturday night. Brown (left hamstring tightness) and Queta (non-COVID illness) are both probable. Brown strained his hamstring in the preseason and has been dealing with some tightness in that hamstring over the past week, which he said affected […]

One.
A one percent chance for the Chicago Bulls to draft number one in the 2008 NBA Draft.
One player mocked in the first round who was born in Chicago.

One player to win the NBA Most Valuable Player award at the age of 22 or younger.

Derrick Rose ‘s iconic No. 1 jersey will be hung in the rafters of the United Center on Saturday night following their game against the Boston Celtics. The current team has won three in a row and are back at .500, but the packed house tonight will have more than a regular season game on their agenda.
Rose’s emergence as a budding young superstar, prior to a cruel intervention from fate, helped reinvigorate his hometown Bulls during an exciting era. Along with fellow Chicago All-Stars Jimm...

The Chicago Bulls have quietly pieced together a three-game win streak. Their latest victory on Thursday night, a 120-115 road triumph against the Minnesota Timberwolves , coincided with a successful Josh Giddey return to action. The 6-foot-7 point guard had gone down with a hamstring strain during Chicago’s last tilt against Minnesota in December, causing him to miss 11 straight contests.

On a freezing cold Thursday night in Minneapolis, the Minnesota Timberwolves desperately needed a win. They had lost their previous three games and had fallen to seventh place in the Western Conference. They were unable to get it as they were taken down by the middling Chicago Bulls 120-115. Just like the previous game against […]

Have yourself a night, Chicago, Josh Giddey is back!
And he looks good.
With a big win over the same team against whom Giddey suffered his hamstring strain, the Bulls are now riding a three-game win streak and are back to .500. The offense looked fluid with him on the floor, even in limited minutes. And I’m happy the rest of the cast was able to fit around him like water in a jar.
Matas once again saw no minutes in the clutch. I know the five the Bulls closed with were strong, b...

In a bit of poetic justice, Josh Giddey will seek his vengeance against the Minnesota Timberwolves on Thursday night. The Chicago Bulls point guard, who suffered a hamstring strain midway through an ill-fated 136-101 loss to Minnesota last month and had been gone ever since, will be playing on a minutes restriction.
Minnesota, meanwhile, is highly motivated to end a three-game losing skid as its front office and coaches get a chance to scout some of their preferred Bulls trade prospects i...

Nearly a month after he was forced to depart the Chicago Bulls’ doomed Dec. 29 tilt against the then-mighty (now-mortal) Minnesota Timberwolves, point guard Josh Giddey is making his long-awaited return to the lineup for a rematch on Thursday night.
Per K.C. Johnson of Chicago Sports Network , the 23-year-old will be playing on a 24-minute restriction. It’s unclear if he will start.
The 6-foot-7 Aussie has sat out Chicago’s last 11 contests due to a hamstring strain, during which the...

The Minnesota Timberwolves need to make a move. At 27-17, the Timberwolves currently occupy the No. 7 seed in the crowded Western Conference. But things can change quickly; the Timberwolves are just three games behind the No. 2-seeded San Antonio Spurs.
Every marginal advantage counts. Where San Antonio is loaded with young, big guards who can handle and defend, Minnesota is seeking to address that deficit on its own roster. Rob Dillingham, the eighth overall pick in the 2024 NBA Draft, h...

Three days. That’s all that separates us from seeing Derrick Rose’s number raised to the rafters at the United Center—his legacy officially immortalized, his name forever sharing space with Michael Jordan. That’s wild for any player, let alone one who grew up in Chicago dreaming of that moment.
And in the buildup to this surreal occasion, Rose has been busy. Making appearances, creating content, selling roses, dropping clothing lines, basically doing anything and everything the Chicago Bu...

The Chicago Bulls might be… becoming self-aware? Obviously, please don’t hold your breath, but it appears team president Arturas Karnisovas , six seasons into his tenure at the franchise’s helm, appreciates midseason that his team is going nowhere. He might actually, really, be open to pivoting from his doomed roster for the second straight season — and a pair of New Orleans Pelicans frontcourt stalwarts, two-time All-Star power forward Zion Williamson and second-year center Yves Missi , could...

I can count on my fingers and toes how many days are left until the NBA trade deadline. But I’d need everyone’s fingers if I tried to count how many trade rumors the Chicago Bulls are tied to.
With seven expiring contracts on the books, the Bulls should be the belle of the ball when it comes to trade negotiations. Yet with nothing materializing so far, Chicago risks striking out on extracting real value from its assets — a headline the franchise seems oddly comfortable wearing.
Still...

Wow, wow, wow. Yes, the Los Angeles Clippers were shorthanded, but it sure didn’t look like the Chicago Bulls had any trouble taking care of business last night. They played a beautiful brand of basketball, and did it in front of QB1 and PCA, no less. Honestly, what more could you ask for?
With another win in the books, the Bulls are somehow inching closer to a real playoff spot. Not the fake, awkward play-in territory, a legitimate playoff position. And with the trade deadline approachin...

The Chicago Bulls edged their way back towards a .500 record tonight with a resounding 138-110 victory against the visiting LA Clippers. Ultimately, a pace-and-space Chicago squad missing Josh Giddey throttled a halfcourt-heavy, heliocentric Clippers club without Kawhi Leonard.
The Bulls rained down a season-high tally of triples and enjoyed a pass-happy approach to improve to a thoroughly mediocre 21-22 record on the year.
Coby White , even playing on a minutes restriction, looked l...
