Kirk Hinrich is one of the most popular and richest Basketball Player who was born on January 2, 1981 in Sioux City, Iowa, United States. NBA guard who played for the Chicago Bulls from 2003 to 2010 then rejoined the team in 2012.

He rejoined Derek Rose on the Chicago Bulls in 2012.

As a high school senior, Hinrich was named the 1999 Co-Iowa Mr. Basketball, along with future college teammate and roommate Nick Collison. Hinrich originally committed to play basketball at Iowa State but when the coach at the time, Tim Floyd, took the head coaching position for the NBA’s Chicago Bulls, Hinrich changed his mind and decided to attend the University of Kansas. Hinrich helped Kansas to consecutive Final Fours in 2002 and 2003, his junior and seniors seasons. He was drafted by the Chicago Bulls with the seventh pick in the 2003 NBA Draft, where he earned the nickname “Captain Kirk.” Hinrich is the Bulls’ all-time leader in three-point field goals. After seven seasons with the Bulls, he had short stints with the Washington Wizards and Atlanta Hawks before returning to the Bulls in 2012. In 2016, he was traded back to the Atlanta Hawks.

Hinrich was selected by the Chicago Bulls in the 2003 NBA draft with the seventh overall pick, resulting in mild surprise because he had been expected to be a mid to late first-round draft pick. Some doubted that his college game would translate successfully to the professional league, in part because he played shooting guard for his final two years in college and was considered too small to play that position professionally. Hinrich’s high selection in the draft is credited to a good workout in front of NBA team scouts. The Bulls needed a point guard, as Jay Williams was severely injured in a motorcycle accident. After being picked by the Bulls, Hinrich said he knew they had a need at point guard:

He had two daughters, Kyla and Kenzie, with wife Jill Fisher.

When Hinrich’s teammate Ben Gordon heard Riley’s comments, he came to his defense stating “I heard him saying something about Kirk. Posey’s was way more blatant. I don’t think Kirk did anything. He was just playing aggressive defense. Kirk didn’t do anything dirty. I don’t appreciate him taking shots at our guys.” Sports Illustrated columnist Chris Mannix called Riley’s comments “on the border of hypocrisy” while maintaining that Hinrich’s grab of Wade’s wrist, while illegal, was not a dirty play. “For starters, the play itself hardly qualifies as dirty. That was not the word Riley chose, but it was certainly what he insinuated. Illegal, yes. But dirty?” “Hinrich had no intention of hurting Wade. He didn’t grab his wrist and twist it. He didn’t chop down on it with his other hand.” He went on to describe plays like that commonplace in the NBA, while calling Posey’s foul on Hinrich during the 2006 playoffs dirty. “Dirty was the cheap shot that James Posey delivered to Hinrich when he leveled the guard with a body check during last season’s playoffs.”
