NBA to punish Josh Giddey after Bulls incident
Josh Giddey ang the Chicago Bulls had an opening night to forget on Wednesday. They lost 135-92 to the Toronto Raptors on the road, with the veteran guard struggling from the field. He will also receive a punishment from the NBA for an incident in the fourth quarter.
The Australian star finished with two points on 1-of-10 shooting, along with seven rebounds and six assists. He also committed five turnovers and was a -39 on the night. Giddey was visibly frustrated throughout the game and couldn’t get his shot going against the Raptors’ tight defense.

Chicago Bulls: Josh Giddey to receive NBA punishment after loss to Raptors
Giddey was issued for a technical foul early in the fourth quarter. He contested a non-call and expressed his frustration to the referees. The NBA will fine him $2,000 for his first technical of the season. The fine remains the same until the fifth infraction before it increases to $3,000 for the sixth to 10th instance.
Giddey enjoyed a career year in 2025-26. He averaged a career-high 17.0 points 8.3 rebounds and 9.1 assists in 54 regular-season games. The offense ran through him and he served as the team’s primary playmaker. However, his efforts weren’t enough as Chicago failed to qualify for the the playoffs for the fourth straight year.
The Bulls will return to action on Friday when they visit the Milwaukee Bucks at Fiserv Forum. It’s a game between two franchises in rebuild mode, giving Giddey and Co. a better chance to get their first win of the season. The team will play its home opener at the United Center the next night versus the Washington Wizards.
