Bulls to add six to Ring of Honor, including Paxson, Van Lier, Grant and Cartwright

The Chicago Bulls on Friday named the Class of 2025 for the organization’s Ring of Honor: Johnny Bach, Bill Cartwright, Neil Funk, Horace Grant, John Paxson and Norm Van Lier.

The Bulls Ring of Honor recognizes and celebrates past players, coaches and front-office members who made outstanding contributions and helped define the organization throughout its history.

The Bulls will celebrate the Class of 2025 with several events in November, including recognition during the Bulls game against the Washington Wizards on Nov. 22 and a private gala on Nov. 20. More information on programming and tickets will be announced later.

The Chicago Bulls Ring of Honor was created during the 2023-24 season. The inaugural class included Artis Gilmore, Phil Jackson, Michael Jordan, Johnny “Red” Kerr, Dick Klein, Jerry Krause, Toni Kukoc, Bob Love, Scottie Pippen, Dennis Rodman, Jerry Sloan, Chet Walker, Tex Winter and the 1995-96 team, which went 72-10 and won the 1996 NBA Championship.

The Chicago Bulls will add new members to the Ring of Honor every other season. Fans can learn more about the Class of 2025 and the Ring of Honor by visiting Bulls.com/RingofHonor.
