The Chicago Bulls are in the process of extending the contract of head coach Billy Donovan, sources told NBA insider Marc Stein.
Donovan joined the Bulls in 2020 and signed a four-year deal with the franchise. His contract was extended prior to the 2022-23 season, and his current deal has one year remaining, Stein adds.
The Bulls reportedly denied the New York Knicks’ request to speak to Donovan about their coaching vacancy earlier in June, as Chicago values his coaching skills, communication ability, and the way he connects with his players and various members of the organization.
