Arturas Karnisovas wants to keep Josh Giddey and Coby White in Chicago long-term

Coby White said he has focused on this season, presenting his teammates and has no thoughts about extending this offseason and repealing his current contract. Consultations with agents/families that could potentially hit the UFA in 2026 will be “downline” – 12:16pm

Monte McNair and Arturas Karnisovas were both hired in 2020. They won the exact same game and went to the playoffs the same number of times. I’m only in charge of one thing yet. pic.x.com/jz7doz0anm – 11:45am

Josh Giddey: At the beginning of the season, I felt like it wasn’t going well and I was trying to make it fit everyone perfectly. Post-trade deadline, I started playing freely and becoming me. As a team, we found another gear post deadline. – 11:24am

Josh Giddy said his hand injury will be “non-problem” by the start of next season. He said rest was a plan. – 11:22 AM

Bulls Exec VPArtūras Karnišovas has expressed his desire to hold Josh Giddy and Coby White for a long time.
Giddey is an RFA. White is expanding, but it is beyond the contract and could head to the UFA in 2026. 11:13am

Hero’s Harter was a solid change, but Wiggins has since found Giddy. – 9:01pm

1h thoughts:
-The Bulls had no one to protect Hero
-Giddey was far worse than his box score. There were some nice drives, but the heat didn’t protect him at all. Even when he has the ball, he gives him a huge cushion
– Heat’s blowreading trends still give the Bulls a small chance – 8:44pm

Heat 71, Bulls 47 half
Boo I heard at UC

The Bulls only have four fast points
Herro 23 Pts
Wiggins 12 points
Adebayo 11 pts
Heat 34 points with paint – 8:39pm

One thing Giddey did well is finding a pocket of space when the team ignores him from the ball. I did a lot of this when these teams met in previous matchups. pic.x.com/z0fmhflhik – 8:17pm

Josh Giddey leads the Bulls in scoring with 13 of the 25 points.
He was also nothing more than responsible for almost every defensive rotation.
Yesterday I wrote about how this week was a critical “prove it” moment in his youth career. chicagotribune.com/2025/04/15/chi… – 8:13pm

Giddey had some great layups in his first stint, but also had some rough defensive possessions. Early on the strength of the full display and warts. pic.x.com/ah3acg8vat – 8:06pm
