Josh Giddey Signs $100M Bulls Extension

<h2>Giddey Signs $100M Bulls Extension - Three Point Summary:&nbsp;</h2> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>- Josh Giddey secures massive four-year, $100 million contract extension with Chicago Bulls</p> <p>- Australian point guard's breakout season included career-highs across multiple statistical categories</p> <p>- Bulls lock in their cornerstone player following impressive post-All-Star break performances</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Australian basketball sensation Josh Giddey has agreed to a lucrative four-year, $100 million contract extension with the Chicago Bulls on Tuesday.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <h2>Giddey's Contract Details Secure Bulls Future</h2> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>The fully guaranteed deal contains no player or team options, cementing the 22-year-old as Chicago's long-term solution at point guard. The Australian’s agent, Daniel Moldovan confirmed that the Josh Giddey contract extension represents one of the most significant investments in the Bulls' recent history.</p> <p>Giddey's path to this massive payday began when Chicago acquired him via trade from the Oklahoma City Thunder for Alex Caruso during the 2024 offseason. The gamble has paid dividends, with the young Australian delivering his best NBA season to date.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <h2>Career-Best Numbers Drive Contract Extension</h2> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>The Melbourne native posted impressive statistics throughout his debut Bulls campaign, averaging 14.6 points per game alongside career-highs in rebounds (8.1), assists (7.2), steals (1.2), and three-point shooting percentage (37.8%). His seven triple-doubles marked the second-highest single-season total in Bulls franchise history, trailing only Michael Jordan's 15 triple-doubles in 1988-89.</p> <p>Giddey's performances reached elite levels following the All-Star break and Zach LaVine's trade departure. During this crucial stretch, the 6-foot-8 playmaker averaged 21.2 points, 10.7 rebounds, and 9.3 assists while shooting an exceptional 50% from the field and 46% from beyond the arc.</p> <p>His breakout moment arrived on March 22nd, against the Los Angeles Lakers, when Giddey became the first player since 1973-74 to record 15 points, 15 assists, 10 rebounds, and eight steals in a single game.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <h2>Bulls Playoff Push Highlights Giddey's Impact</h2> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>The Australians' influence proved crucial during Chicago's season-ending surge. The Bulls compiled a remarkable 15-5 record over their final 20 games to secure a play-in tournament berth, with Giddey participating in 13 of those contests. Throughout this decisive period, he maintained averages of 20.6 points, 10.7 rebounds, and 9.7 assists despite playing through a muscle tear in his shooting hand palm during the final month.</p> <p>Giddey's NBA journey began as the sixth overall pick in the 2021 draft by Oklahoma City, where he quickly established himself as a statistical anomaly. He remains the youngest player in league history to record a triple-double, achieving the milestone at 19 years and 84 days old against Dallas on January 2, 2022.</p> <p>The contract extension makes Giddey only the second restricted free agent to finalise a deal this September, following Brooklyn's Cam Thomas. With limited salary cap space across the league, creating a frozen restricted free agent market, Chicago's commitment to their Australian star signals their confidence in building around his unique skill set.</p> <p>This investment positions the Bulls to compete while developing around one of the NBA's most promising young talents, ensuring Giddey remains central to their future success.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <h2>NBA Championship 2025/26 Odds:&nbsp;</h2>
