CHICAGO (AP) -- The Chicago Bulls exercised contract options for the 2009-10 season on forward Tyrus Thomas, guard Thabo Sefolosha and center Joakim Noah on Friday.
Thomas has averaged 6.0 points and 4.2 rebounds in two seasons. The fourth overall pick by Portland in 2006, he was acquired in a trade for the draft rights to LaMarcus Aldridge.
Sefolosha has averaged 5.1 points in two years, but could make a bigger impact in the backcourt after showing some promising glimpses last season.
Noah, the ninth pick in the 2007 draft, averaged 6.6 points and 5.6 rebounds as a rookie.
