Bulls, Josh Giddey Contract Stalemate Continues

News summary

Contract talks between the Chicago Bulls and restricted free agent Josh Giddey remain stalled, as the Bulls reportedly never considered offering the widely rumored $30 million per year salary, according to team insider K.C. Johnson. The slow restricted free agency market has limited Giddey's leverage, and neither side has expressed frustration with the ongoing impasse. Giddey could accept an $11 million qualifying offer, making him an unrestricted free agent in 2026 and potentially allowing him to seek offers from other teams. This possibility puts the Bulls at risk of losing control over Giddey's future after acquiring him last season. Re-signing Giddey remains a priority for the Bulls, who missed the playoffs and have made few major free agency moves. Last season, Giddey averaged 14.6 points, 8.1 rebounds, and 7.2 assists in 70 games.
