The 22-year-old Giddey could play on the last season of his deal, which is roughly $11 million and then become an unrestricted free agent

Josh Giddey has been linked to a $30 million per year contract extension in rumors for almost a year. But it sounds like that might not be where the Chicago Bulls and their do-everything guard end up in negotiations. Bulls beat reporter K.C. Johnson shared thoughts recently on a local broadcast about where that number has come from.
