## Resource

Chicago lost a true sports legend this past Sunday with the passing of Stacey King, beloved Bulls color commentator and iconic voice of the city’s basketball culture. Known for his electrifying energy, unforgettable catchphrases like “Give me the hot sauce” and “You can drive home safely, Chicago, beep beep,” and his uncanny ability to turn even the toughest games into must-watch entertainment, King was more than just soundbites—he was a master storyteller who made every broadcast feel personal. Paired with Neil Funk and Adam Amin, he created magic in the booth, with Funk calling him the “driver” of their dynamic. Beyond the mic, King was a fan favorite, staying late to connect with kids and fans, embodying genuine care and community. His love for big men and simple philosophy—“It’s a simple game”—left a lasting imprint. His sudden absence leaves a gaping void in Chicago sports, reminding us how deeply his passion, humor, and humanity shaped the game—and our memories of it.
