NBA Rumors: Josh Giddey's Future with the Bulls Complicated
The player continues to demand 30 million per season, but Chicago refuses to renew him for that amount
Taking advantage of his "restricted" status in the 2025 NBA Free Agency, Josh Giddey aims to secure a hefty sum this summer. To stay with the Chicago Bulls, the guard is demanding a $30 million contract per season.
If any team in the league offers him that amount, the Bulls would be obligated to match it if they want to keep him. So far, no franchise has made that offer to Giddey, and Chicago is also hesitant to renew him for that figure.
This is indicated by NBA Rumors insider K.C. Johnson from the Chicago Sports Network. As a restricted free agent, Giddey's options are limited. He can either wait for a long-term contract with the Bulls or sign his $11 million qualifying offer.
This would mean a one-year deal with Chicago, after which Giddey would become an unrestricted free agent in 2026. If he accepts the qualifying offer, he would also have a one-year no-trade clause, as he would lose his Bird rights if traded while under that contract.
