HOFFMAN ESTATES, IL - The Windy City Bulls, presented by BMO Harris Bank, the official NBA G League affiliate of the Chicago Bulls, today announced a new television broadcast agreement with NBC Sports Chicago that includes 17 home games from the Sears Centre Arena in Hoffman Estates airing on the regional sports network during the team's 2018-19 regular season.

12 Windy City games will air live on NBC Sports Chicago and its sister station, NBC Sports Chicago Plus, while five games will be shown on tape-delay. Each game will be re-broadcast at least once within 24 hours of airing and all scheduled broadcasts will also be available via an authenticated stream at NBCSportsChicago.com/WatchLive .
Windy City's home and road games will continue to be broadcast via the NBA G League's official online streaming platforms.
