**CHICAGO, IL (February 3, 2025)** – The Chicago Bulls announced today that they have waived guard Chris Duarte. The move comes with no prior transaction notes and concludes Duarte’s tenure with the team.
Duarte appeared in 17 games this season, averaging 2.1 points, 1.2 rebounds, and 0.5 assists. He shot 46.2% from the field and 40% from three-point range. Interestingly, the Bulls scored slightly fewer points per game (115.4) when Duarte played, compared to when he was absent (117.1).
The team’s record also reflects a noticeable difference. Chicago went 4-13 in games Duarte participated in, but 17-16 in games he missed. The waiver of Duarte may impact the Bulls’ bench depth and scoring options as the team moves forward.
