The 2015–16 Chicago Bulls season was the 50th season of the franchise in the National Basketball Association (NBA). Fred Hoiberg was selected as the head coach, after the firing of previous head coach Tom Thibodeau.[1]

Jimmy Butler, for the second time was voted to play in the 2016 NBA All-Star Game, which was held in Toronto. However, Butler was unable to play due to injury and replacing him was teammate Pau Gasol.

Derrick Rose played in 66 games this season, the most since his MVP campaign in 2010–11. Following the season, he was traded to the New York Knicks, Joakim Noah signed as a free agent with the Knicks and Gasol signed with the San Antonio Spurs.

The Bulls missed the playoffs for the first time since 2008 and were eliminated from playoff contention by the Detroit Pistons.
