McKinnie initially signed a 10-day contract during the Bulls’ COVID outbreak. He was brought in via the hardship exception since the Bulls were down more than half their roster. In the two games McKinnie appeared in, he averaged 4.0 PPG, 1 RPG, and 1 APG. He shot 30% from the field and 33% from downtown in those contests.

Chicago is still without Zach LaVine, Ayo Dosunmu, Troy Brown Jr, and Matt Thomas. If Alfonzo McKinnie impresses the Bulls’ brass, he could be in line for the last roster spot or a role with their G League affiliate.
