CHICAGO — The Chicago Bulls signed center Orlando Robinson on Friday, November 13, officially filling their last open roster spot. The team announced the move at 1:28 p.m. Central and said Robinson will wear No. 00. His contract terms were not disclosed. Chicago now has all 18 available places filled, including its standard roster and two-way positions, giving the coaching staff another interior option early in the 2026–27 season.
Robinson, a 6-foot-10 veteran, has appeared in 115 NBA games with the Miami Heat, Sacramento Kings, Toronto Raptors and Orlando Magic. He most recently played for Chicago’s NBA G League affiliate, the Windy City Bulls, averaging 13.7 points, 8.0 rebounds and 2.7 assists across its first three games. He also spent time with Chicago during the preseason. Those connections should help him adapt to the team’s terminology and system, although his exact rotation role has not been announced.
The transaction follows Thursday’s news that Bulls rookie Caleb Wilson is expected to miss four to six weeks with a fractured right hand. Chicago has not explicitly described Robinson’s signing as a one-for-one replacement for Wilson, and the two play different roles, but the move adds frontcourt depth while the rookie recovers. The fresh story here is the completed signing and its roster implications, not a repeat of the Wilson injury report. Robinson will now have an opportunity to turn productive G League minutes into another NBA role.
