The Bulls have announced that they have added big man Simisola Shittu, according to the team’s official Twitter account.
K.C. Johnson of NBC Sports Chicago notes that, with the Shittu signing, the Bulls have now filled their 20-man roster for training camp (via Twitter link).
The 6’10” big man went undrafted in 2019 out of Vanderbilt. Inked to a training camp contract by the Bulls last season, Shittu went on to play 40 games for the Bulls’ G League affiliate (including 18 starts), the Windy City Bulls. He averaged 12.3 PPG, 6.4 RPG, 1.3 APG, and 1.3 SPG for the club in 20.2 MPG.
Though joining the Bulls’ regular season roster looks like a long shot, signing his second training camp deal with Chicago could suggest that a second trip to the Windy City Bulls this season is on the table for the 21-year-old.

I Shittu not
Wow, I mean I know it’s the G-league that’s one pretty impressive stat line, especially when you consider he only averaged 20mpg..That be roughly 18/9/2/2 per 30mpg..
In betting he could definitely be more useful than Felicio is as one of the last roster spots…They should stretch Felicio, and give this kid a chance backing up Carter Jr., Gafford, and Kornet..
they can cut felicio no reason to stretch his cap hit over the next 2 years. just take the hit this year.
What’s in a name?
Offendive-ness

No ones made a Dumb and Dumber reference? One time we crossed a bulldog with a shih tzu, we called it a Bull Shit
