Matas Buzelis contributes in limited minutes as Bulls edge Nets
by Joel E. Ruffin Jr. | Bulls Correspondent | Fri, Mar 14th 1:42pm EDT
Matas Buzelis totaled six points (2-7 FG, 0-3 3PT, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, and one assist in the Bulls’ 116-110 win over the Nets.
Fantasy Impact:
Buzelis played just 15 minutes in this one, primarily due to foul trouble and the tight nature of the game, but his impact remains evident. As a rookie, he has already won the trust of the coaching staff and franchise, positioning himself as a foundational piece for the team’s future. With Nikola Vucevic back and Zach Collins playing well, his floor time could fluctuate, but it’s clear that Chicago is investing in his development. Buzelis is an intriguing streaming option in season-long leagues and a viable DFS play, but expectations should be set accordingly. His matchup against the Rockets next will be a great test of his ability to push through growing pains and take another step toward breaking through as a key contributor.
