THREE-TIME NBA CHAMPION STACEY KING DIES AT 59

SUN 07 JUN 2026 US SPORTS

Stacey King, a three-time NBA champion with the Chicago Bulls, has died at the age of 59. King won all three of his championships alongside Michael Jordan during his time with Chicago. The Bulls confirmed his passing, marking the loss of a figure who contributed to the franchise across two distinct roles. His death was reported across multiple outlets covering the NBA and professional basketball.

King played for the Chicago Bulls during their championship runs in the early 1990s. After his playing career ended, he remained connected to the franchise as a broadcaster. He built a second career in that role, becoming a recognisable voice for Bulls fans over many years. His dual legacy as both a player and a broadcaster made him an unusual figure in the franchise's history.

King's passing connects to a broader era of Bulls history that produced multiple championships and remains one of the most documented periods in NBA history. His role as part of those title-winning rosters places him among a defined group of players who share that championship record with Jordan. The Bulls have not yet announced details of any formal tribute or memorial at this stage. His death draws renewed attention to the players who formed the supporting cast of Chicago's championship dynasty.
