Larsa Pippen with Scottie Pippen at Courthouse

Onetime Chicago Bulls star Scottie Pippen dissolved in tears Monday and gasped as a Cook County jury awarded him a $2 million verdict in a jet deal that went south.

Pippen had sued two attorneys at the Chicago law firm Pedersen & Houpt for malpractice, alleging they failed to closely monitor his purchase of the jet, which was grounded only months after the 2002 purchase.

“I don’t want to really say anything, I’m just exhausted and tired,” a red-eyed but smiling Pippen said before leaving the courthouse with wife Larsa Pippen.

Pippen didn’t win the full $8.2 million he was seeking. Rather, the jury found he bore some responsibility in the bad business deals.
