Zach LaVine wasn’t done putting up shots late Wednesday night.
The longtime Bulls guard burst into his old locker room with a towel in hand, saw his former “student” surrounded by cameras and microphones after the game, and tossed the towel directly at Matas Buzelis’ head while the forward was in mid-sentence. Nothing but net.
Really the only way to slow Buzelis down all night.
Because LaVine and the Kings definitely didn’t have an answer for the second-year Bulls forward on the court, as he finished with 27 points in the 13-point win, and did so on 11-of-18 shooting, including 4-of-6 from three-point range.
