Not bad for an old guy.
On a night in which Matas Buzelis let the league know that he might be a headache for years to come, it was soon-to-be 35-year-old Nikola Vucevic that reminded everyone he’s never left.
Thanks to 28 points, including eight down the stretch, the Bulls (1-0) let Vucevic carry them to a 115-111 win on their regular-season opening night at the United Center.
“I felt really good,” Vucevic said about his showing. “Preseason was just a way for me to get my body going. I know my body really well, and my teammates got me going inside and outside.
