Signed, signed! Finally signed! Just now, another restricted free agent in the league reached a new signing with his old club! It is reported that after Cameron Thomas chose to return to the Brooklyn Nets with a one-year quotation of 6 million yuan, Josh Giddy has now signed a contract with his old club, the Bulls, officially announcing his return to Chicago.

On September 10, the Chicago Bulls officially announced that the team officially renewed the contract with defender Josh Giddy. According to team policy, the terms of the contract are not yet announced! According to previous reports by ESPN reporter Shams, Josh Gidey and the Chicago Bulls reached a four-year contract renewal worth $100 million. At this point, this means that Josh Gidedy has officially returned to Chicago and he will play for the Bulls in the next four years!

With the Bulls officially announced the official signing of Joshgidi, the protracted tug-of-war between the two sides finally came to an end successfully! Although the Bulls have always regarded Josh Giddy as the team's future core, the annual salary they previously provided for Jiddy was basically around 20 million, while what Josh Giddy has always wanted to pursue is a big contract with an annual salary of around 30 million! In this way, this has led to the two sides being unable to reach an agreement on the renewal negotiations.

According to salary expert Bobby Marks, the Chicago Bulls' contract renewal offer for Josh Gidedy has been raised to 88 million in four years. It is particularly worth mentioning that the latest renewal offer provided by the Bulls to Gidey is considered the final offer by the outside world! But according to NBA reporter Ashish Mathur, Joshgidi insists on pursuing a four-year, $120 million contract. In this way, this makes people feel a little worried about the final signing of the two parties! After all, there is a gap of as much as $32 million. But fortunately, after more than two months of negotiations, the two sides finally compromised and reached a 4-year compromise of 100 million yuan! In the 2024-25 season, Josh Giddi averaged 14.6 points, 8.1 rebounds, 7.2 assists, 1.2 steals and 0.6 blocks per game, with shooting percentages of 46.5%/37.8%/78.1% respectively in the three events. After the All-Star, Josh Giddy ushered in a blowout, and averaged 21.2 points, 10.7 rebounds and 9.3 assists per game, with a shooting percentage of 50% and a three-point shooting percentage of 46%.

Frankly speaking, judging from Joshgidi's comprehensive performance last season, he is worthy of the Bulls' offer him a 4-year, 100 million contract extension, and it is not an exaggeration to even ask for an annual salary of 30 million. After all, Josh Gidi is an all-round talent who can contribute a triple-double in the game at any time! Besides, even though Joshgidi's performance on the court is not perfect enough and there are still many problems, don't forget that he is not yet 23 years old. Therefore, Joshgidi still has a lot of time to grow and improve in the future, and he can be said to have unlimited potential!

After Joshgidi officially renewed the Chicago Bulls, the only four restricted free agents this summer are the only four restricted free agents left. But judging from the recent updates posted by Grimes on his personal social media, it should be a good thing for him to renew his contract with 76 people! However, Kumingga's contract renewal negotiations with the Warriors have not made any positive progress. Perhaps, Cumingga will eventually follow Cameron Thomas and choose to accept the qualification offer to return the Warriors, and then continue to pursue the ideal big contract after tomorrow summer is fully free.

Congratulations to Joshgidi for winning the Bulls' 4-year, 100 million contract extension! At the same time, I hope that the other two restricted free agents can reach a friendly agreement with their old club as soon as possible.
