WNBA: Australian Alanna Smith has been left shocked after a controversial foul called against her has resulted in Game 5 of the WNBA finals going to overtime. The New York Liberty would go on to with the championship.
Chicago Bulls’ decision not to extend his contractWhile the likes of Houston duo Alperen Sengun and Jalen Green , Atlanta’s Jalen Johnson and Orlando’s Jalen Suggs got locked away on lucrative extensions beyond their standard rookie deals ahead of Tuesday’s deadline , Giddey and the Bulls couldn’t reach an agreement.
“My goal now is focused on this team, winning games and doing what I can … I’m very happy here, I love it here.” Giddey is set to get every opportunity to do that in a prominent role as Billy Donovan’s starting point guard. Of course, just because Giddey didn’t receive an extension doesn’t mean he’s going to leave Chicago after one season.
“If you’re the Bulls, you want to see how this plays out and why not wait? If Giddey ends up being a great player, fine, here’s your cashGiddey could also see his role grow as the season goes on, with veterans LaVine and Nikola Vucevic considered two names to watch on the trade market.
