STATEMENT FROM JERRY REINSDORF, CHICAGO BULLS CHAIRMAN AND CO-CHAIRMAN OF UNITED CENTER JOINT VENTURE

“This is just shocking news, and I am personally devastated. Rocky truly was a great man. We were far more than partners at the United Center. We were very close; he was a dear friend and our trust, our bond, was unbreakable. We never had a disagreement or argument during all of our many years together.

“Everyone liked Rocky. He was smart, passionate, generous, personable and friendly. He cared deeply about the Blackhawks, the people who worked for the team and at the United Center, Blackhawks fans and the city of Chicago. He was so very proud of the Stanley Cup Championships and what those trophies meant to the organization, the city and the fans.

“He was deservedly proud, as well, when it came to his countless civic and charitable endeavors and the positive impact they made on so many. This is a loss for us all. My condolences go out to Marilyn, his children and grandchildren, and the entire Wirtz family.

“His passing came far too soon as he had so very much to live for.”

STATEMENT FROM MICHAEL REINSDORF, CHICAGO BULLS PRESIDENT AND CEO

“The city of Chicago has lost an iconic figure today, but to me, the loss is beyond business or sports. It is the loss of a family member. Rocky was someone who from a young age, I looked up to and was a constant presence in my life. From his daughter Hilary teaching my and Nancy’s kids, to our daughter Jenny marrying his nephew Will, this is a family loss.

“His unwavering commitment to the Blackhawks, the United Center, Chicago sports and the community will be his legacy to the city and millions of Blackhawk fans. We are heartbroken for his kids, Danny, Hilary, Kendall and Elizabeth, his wife Marilyn, and his entire family. We cherish the memories we have shared with Rocky and will forever remember him as a great friend and a true family member.”

The 24-year-old Kadiköy, Turkey native finished the 2022-23 BSL campaign ranked top-10 in the league in several offensive categories, including three-point field goals made (first – 85), total points (second – 551), field goals made (second – 199), points per game (fifth – 18.4) and three-point shooting percentage (seventh – .409).

During EuroCup action a season ago, Bitim posted averages of 18.1 points, 3.8 rebounds, 3.2 assists and 0.8 steals in 32.2 minutes.

This past season, the Chicago Bulls and United Airlines launched a community program with Infinity Math, Science & Technology High School in Little Village – a predominantly Latinx neighborhood in Chicago. The program focused primarily on providing Latinx youth with opportunities to explore professional pathways across the STEM industries, and supported the school’s efforts to strengthen its art curriculum through a collaboration with Bulls Creative Strategy & Design Advisor Don C.

Here are the thoughts and reflections of the students on the program:

January 27th - Museum of Science and Industry

Valeria Perez: I really loved going to MSI, seeing all of the different prosthetics and even planning some out was super cool. I also liked talking to the pilots because it gave me a new perspective on flying. I learned so much more about what it’s like to be a pilot and how much responsibility there is... seeing all the those controls made me really appreciate pilots.

February 17th - Discovery Partners Institute

Jennifer Guzman: The people we talked to (at Discovery Partners Institute) were amazing. I remember Sanjuana (Jaime-Nix, product director) shared a beautiful story with us. She talked about her struggles and her words were meaningful. That morning, I had just failed a biology exam and hearing those kind words melted my heart and just reminded me that everything happens for a reason and to keep pushing.

Something I’ve learned is to believe in myself. We were challenged to complete a website under 30 minutes and I was doubting myself but managed to complete the challenge.

united-los-bulls-game

United Los Bulls Game

Christopher Luna: Ever since January we’ve started to get closer with the Bulls, and the Los Bulls game was a nice way to write off a chapter. It felt great to feel represented and to leave our mark with the Bulls.

Diana Sandoval: Living in Little Village for so long, you think that you would know all about it, but the Dilla Tour added more to my knowledge. When going through 26th St and all these different streets, we have seen all these different buildings and all the art, but thanks to the Dilla tour, we know the origin of all the art and its purpose.

Isabella Salgado: It's so important to learn about where I live. I didn't realize how amazing our community is and how beautiful everything is.&nbsp;

Cassandra Perez: Budgeting hadn't really been on my mind a lot until I came across the game we played where we had different scenarios. I had the college student scenario and because I'm going to become one, I learned that I have to take responsibility on what I spend my money on. I realized that saving money is such a huge responsibility when it comes to being a college student.

Jose Tamayo: It was so thrilling to get under the wing of a marvelous plane like the 787 Dreamliner. To see the whole process that a passenger usually doesn’t get to experience was just amazing to say the least. I truly felt like a little kid with the amount of excitement rushing through my body.

Laura Acosta: Something interesting that I learned at the stop was how all types of careers can fit into running an Airport. For example, if you’re good with math then you might be needed for analyzing statistics. If you’re good at communicating then you’re needed to communicate with others to secure a flight. It was really interesting to learn how much goes on in an Airport.

June 5th - United Corporate Offices Visit

For the final stop of the program, the Infinity High School students visited United's corporate offices in Willis Tower. The students learned about the business operations that support United Airlines flights and were also presented with their own custom Bulls jerseys to celebrate the end of the program.

The Chicago Bulls announced today the team has re-signed guard Ayo Dosunmu to a multi-year contract. In accordance with team policy, terms of the contract were not disclosed. &nbsp;

Dosunmu, 6-4, 200, was drafted by Chicago with the 38th overall pick in the 2021 NBA Draft and has averaged 8.7 points (.506 FG%, .344 3FG%), 2.8 rebounds, 2.9 assists and 0.8 steals in 26.3 minutes through 157 games (91 starts) from 2021-23. Dosunmu earned consecutive NBA All-Star Rising Star selections during his rookie and sophomore seasons, becoming the eighth player in team history to garner multiple invites to the Rising Stars game. He is the only guard in Bulls history to shoot at least .490 from the field in each of his first two seasons in the league and appeared in the most games by a Bulls player over their opening two seasons since 2011 (Taj Gibson).

The Chicago, Ill. native tallied clips of 8.6 points, 2.8 rebounds, 2.6 assists and 0.8 steals in 26.2 minutes over 81 games (51 starts) in 2022-23. Dosunmu was one of three second-year guards with at least 400 points in the paint and ranked third in field-goal percentage (.493) among the same group. He posted a .805 shooting percentage from the free-throw line, making him one of eight NBA guards a year ago to shoot better than .490 from the floor and .800 from the charity stripe (min. 60 games played). Among all players from the 2021 NBA Draft class, Dosunmu ranks eighth in assists (462), eighth in steals (122) and 14th in points (1,366) across the last two seasons.

Dosunmu played three years collegiately at the University of Illinois, earning a 2020-21 Consensus All-America First Team selection while being named the 2020-21 Bob Cousy Point Guard of the Year as a senior. He was a two-time All-Big Ten honoree (First Team in 2020-21, Second Team in 2019-20) and was named to the 2018-19 Big Ten All-Freshman team.
