Chicago Bulls coach Billy Donovan has signed a multiyear contract extension with the franchise, sources told ESPN on Sunday.

The Bulls and Donovan started negotiations at the end of last season and continued conversations through this week amid offseason planning, a brief pursuit of Donovan by the New York Knicks, and the draft, free agency and summer league, sources told ESPN.

Donovan is viewed as a leader within the Bulls' organization, and he will enter his sixth season in Chicago in 2025-26 with 800 NBA games coached over his career.
