Chicago Bulls head coach Billy Donovan signed a multi-year contract extension, ESPN reported Sunday.

Terms of the deal were not disclosed for Donovan, 60, who had one year remaining on the contract.

Donovan guided Chicago its second consecutive 39-43 record last season, finishing ninth in the Eastern Conference. The Bulls fell 109-90 to the Miami Heat in a play-in game and missed the playoffs for the third straight season.

Donovan is 195-205 during his five seasons with Chicago. He is 438-362 during his time with the Oklahoma City Thunder (2015-20) and Bulls.
