Chicago Bulls guard Josh Giddey has officially locked in his future with the franchise, agreeing to a four-year, $100 million fully guaranteed contract.
The deal was finalized on September 9, 2025, following months of speculation around his restricted free agency status. Instead of testing the market or accepting a one-year qualifying offer, the 22-year-old guard chose long-term stability with Chicago.
Giddey is coming off a career-best season in 2024–25, where he averaged 14.6 points, 8.1 rebounds, and 7.2 assists per game, while also posting a career-high 37.8% from three-point range. His versatile playmaking and improved shooting turned him into one of the Bulls’ most reliable options.
The contract, which contains no player or team options, signals Chicago’s strong confidence in Giddey as a cornerstone of their future. He joins an elite group of young stars who have signed nine-figure deals before the age of 23.
With Giddey locked in, the Bulls now look ahead to building around their young talent and pushing for a deeper playoff run in the seasons to come.
The road to this contract was anything but smooth. Bulls fans watched all summer as talks dragged on, with speculation growing that Giddey might take the short-term qualifying offer and re-enter free agency in 2026. The uncertainty created tension around the organization, especially given the team’s desire to stabilize its young core.
By reaching this four-year, nine-figure deal, the Bulls avoid that risk and instead lock in a rising star at a crucial point in his career. For Giddey, it’s validation that his development and versatility are central to Chicago’s long-term vision.
With the contract saga resolved, the focus now shifts to the court, where Giddey and the Bulls aim to translate this commitment into consistent playoff success.
