CircleSeven 1944 Posted November 1, 2023 Share Posted November 1, 2023 Channel 5 is going to simulcast four live Friday games from NBC Sports Chicago. WMAQ will air two Bulls games in November (3rd & 17th), and two Blackhawks games in December (22nd & 29th). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No word if they're going to move the entire operation of NBC Sports Chicago to the Tower as well, but it would make sense to do so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
