10:14am: Funk’s deal is official, the Bulls announced in a press release.
8:37am: G League guard Andrew Funk will sign a two-way contract with the Bulls, according to Shams Charania of The Athletic (Twitter link).
Funk, 24, inked an Exhibit 10 deal with the Nuggets last July after going undrafted out of Penn State. He was waived before the start of the season and joined the Grand Rapids Gold, where he’s averaging 13.4 points, 3.4 rebounds and 3.5 assists in 20 G League regular season games. He’s one of the NBAGL’s best outside shooters, connecting at better than 39% from three-point range.
Funk will fill the two-way spot that will open when Onuralp Bitim is converted to a standard deal, as Charania reported Friday. Those moves will give Chicago a full 18-man roster, with all three two-way slots filled.
Depending on when Funk officially signs, he will be eligible to be active for up to 14 or 15 games for the Bulls for the rest of the season.
Funky!
Bringing the Funk to the Windy City!
Jeezus Christ Bulls have no PFs but make a bunch of moves to add more guards, and not even NBA veteran guards. So Bulls.
What veteran are you going to get on a two-way lmao
The bulls got the funk
BULLS NEED BIGS….PF AND CENTER…60D D4M-N
Yeah these guys love their tiny people. The more the merrier. They’ve already been labeled the biggest losers of 2024. Might as well keep it going. In a league of giants we love little guys. Brutal
Thats a funky move
Dwight Howard is still a free agent.
And he’s not eligible for a two-way. NEXT
