Chicago Bulls Acquire Former Celtics Forward in Last-Minute Move

The Chicago Bulls announced they have signed 6-foot-7 wing Jalen Bridges and waived forward Marquel Sutton. Bridges, a 25-year-old former Baylor standout, previously appeared in eight games for the Phoenix Suns and spent time with the Boston Celtics organization.

Bridges is expected to compete for depth with an eye toward an Exhibit 10 bonus or a spot with the Windy City Bulls. He spent the 2025-26 season with the Maine Celtics, averaging 14.1 points, 1.5 steals, and shooting 37.2 percent from 3-point range in 32.5 minutes per game.
