Bridges agreed to a contract with the Bulls on Wednesday.
The terms of the contract weren't made public, though it's likely a camp deal for Bridges. The 25-year-old went undrafted in 2024. Since then, he has mostly played in the G League. However, Bridges has some NBA experience, logging eight games with the Suns during the 2024-25 campaign and averaging 1.1 points in 3.8 minutes per contest.

Suns' Jalen Bridges: Agrees to two-way deal with Suns
Rotowire
Bridges agreed to a two-way contract with the Suns on Thursday, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.
The Suns have roughly $184.5 million in committed contracts amongst their starting five, so management will need to get creative in filling out the rest of their roster, meaning Bridges could find his way into the rotation this season. The 6-foot-7 forward is a physically gifted athlete, and he drained 42 percent of his three-point attempts during his final season at Baylor, so he has potential to develop into a 3-and-D guy for Phoenix.
