(670 The Score) The Bulls will honor franchise icon Joakim Noah when they host the Knicks at the United Center on Oct. 28.
Noah announced early last March his plan to retire, and the Bulls organization wanted to get fans back at full capacity before honoring him. Making the occasion more special for Noah is that former Bulls coach Tom Thibodeau is set to be in attendance as now leads the Knicks.
Noah was a two-time All-Star center who was the heart and soul of the franchise while playing in Chicago from 2007-’16.
The Bulls will also honor Hall of Fame forward Toni Kukoc when they host the Jazz on Oct. 30. He was recently inducted into the Hall of Fame.
Bulls tickets go on sale Friday at 10 a.m. They can be purchased at Bulls.com. Group tickets and season tickets can also be purchased by calling 312-455-4000.
