The season ended on a sour note for Giddey, but he played extremely well over the final stretch, averaging nearly a triple-double since the All-Star break.

The 22-year-old will be a restricted free agent this offseason.

In his first season with the Bulls, Giddey posted career-highs in multiple categories and averaged 14.6 points, 8.1 rebounds, 7.2 assists, 1.2 steals, and 1.5 threes per game with shooting splits of .465/.378/.781.

Chicago Bulls guard/forwardJosh Giddey(hip) is unavailable for Tuesday's matchup with the Cleveland Cavaliers. Giddey will be out of action for the first leg of a back-to-back set due to right forearm tendinopathy.

Talen Horton-Tucker is likely in line for a heavier workload while Giddey is out against the Cavs.
