This past week, the Chicago Bulls faced the Denver Nuggets in their fourth preseason matchup of the year, falling 121-117 in the Mile High City. The game featured a clear difference in dynamic between Denver's older and more experienced roster against Chicago's younger and more energetic lineup. While the Bulls came up short, one player stole the spotlight: second-year forward Matas Buzelis.
Buzelis didn't even just look improved heading into his sophomore campaign, he's simply looked like an All-Star. In just 20 minutes of action, he put up 20 points and three rebounds, while also blocking five shots and shooting 7-of-12 from the field.
