Chicago Bears head coach Ben Johnson attended the Chicago Bulls vs Milwaukee Bucks game on Sunday afternoon at the United Center.
And what a fitting game it was for Johnson to attend as the Bulls came back to beat the Bucks, overcoming a 15-point halftime deficit and snapping their 11-game losing streak to win 120 to 97.

Johnson met with Bulls head coach Billy Donovan and watched the game with former Bulls small forward Scottie Pippen.
When Johnson appeared on the Jumbotron, he teased the crowd by pretending he was about to take off his shirt—a playful reference to the Bears’ postgame locker room celebration following their victory against the Philadelphia Eagles this past season.
Throughout the course of the offseason, both Bears coaches and players have shared notable crossover moments with other Chicago sports teams. Most recently, tight end Colston Loveland attended a Bulls game.
Bears quarterback Caleb Williams also attended a Chicago Blackhawks game with Chicago Cubs outfielder Pete Crow-Armstrong, while he was rocking Blackhawks center Connor Bedard’s jersey.
Williams, Crow-Armstrong, and Bedard are building a strong friendship while emerging as standout young stars in Chicago sports.
What an exciting time to be a Chicago sports fan!
