Audacy’s 670 AM The Score will serve as the team’s flagship radio station. The Score will broadcast two Bulls home preseason games, as well as all home and away regular and postseason games and pre- and postgame programming.

HISTORY
The Bulls are entering their 53rd season as a professional sports franchise in the NBA. The group has achieved a winning record 25 times and has appeared in the NBA playoffs 35 times. They received international recognition in the 1990s when All-Star shooting guard Michael Jordan led them to six NBA championships.
The only three NBA franchises that have won more championships than the Bulls are the Boston Celtics and the Los Angeles Lakers (17 championships each), and the Golden State Warriors, with 7. The Bulls are the only NBA franchise as of 2022 to have a combination of multiple championships and zero losses in the NBA Finals (the San Antonio Spurs are the closest other franchise to this mark, but the 2013 Finals loss to Miami has given the Spurs an all-time Finals record of 5-1).
