Chicago Bulls, coach Jim Boylen agree to contract extension

CHICAGO (AP) The Chicago Bulls and coach Jim Boylen have agreed to a contract extension.

Boylen was already under contract for next season when the Bulls promoted him from assistant coach to take over for the fired Fred Hoiberg in December. They never gave him the interim tag.

Executive vice president of basketball operations John Paxson said at the end of the season that Boylen would likely get an extension. The Bulls made it official on Friday, though they did not announce the length or financial terms.
