There have been moments in the expected Matas Buzelis breakout season.

Just not enough.

And with 26 games now on Buzelis’ sophomore NBA resume it’s time for that to change for the Bulls forward. If this iteration of the reload is expected to have any sort of legs, it better.

As far as the 2024 draft class goes, Buzelis has proven to be a value pick at No. 11. No. 2 pick Alex Sarr has taken a huge jump for Washington, while No. 4 pick – and the Rookie of the Year – Stephon Castle has star potential written all over him.
