CHICAGO - The Chicago Bulls announced today they will honor the victims of the tragic shooting at Northern Illinois University by wearing NIU t-shirts during their pre-game activities for Wednesday and Friday's game. The Bulls will wear the NIU t-shirts including the Huskies logo when they play the New Jersey Nets on Wednesday as well as the Denver Nuggets at home on Friday. The team will also observe a moment of silence before the national anthem at Friday's game to allow fans to pay their respects.
