3 takeaways as the Bulls beat the Nets — but the biggest cheers weren’t for the basketball

On Sunday, the Chicago Bulls beat the Brooklyn Nets 124-102 in Chicago and upgraded Josh Giddey, Chicago Bulls guard, from out to doubtful for the game.
On December 29, Josh Giddey suffered a strained right hamstring early in the second half of the Bulls' 136-101 loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves, keeping him out in 2026.
On Sunday, Josh Giddey, Chicago Bulls guard, practiced five-on-five with the NBA G-League's Windy City Bulls for the first time since his hamstring strain, and Bulls coach Billy Donovan said everything went well with extra work after practice while medical staff want a couple more sessions.
Giddey's doubtful status suggests he could return quickly, as the Bulls said they still hope he can come back later this week and fans were told to expect him back soon.
Before the injury, Giddey was making a case for his first All-Star, averaging 19.2 points, 8.9 rebounds, and nine assists, and tied for second in triple-doubles with seven.
