  4H ago • By RotoWire

  Buzelis closed with 28 points (10-11 FG, 7-8 3Pt, 1-2 FT), three rebounds, two blocks and one steal in 29 minutes during Sunday's 152-150 win over the Hawks. Not only did Buzelis notch a season-best in points, but he also set a new career high in triples with seven, and finished with an impeccable true shooting percentage of 117.8. Buzelis has now scored 20 points in back-to-back games for the first time in his career, and he'll look to extend the 20-point scoring streak to three in Tuesday's rematch with Atlanta.

• Bulls' Matas Buzelis: Breaks out with 24 points

  2D ago • By RotoWire

  Buzelis closed Friday's 136-125 win over the Cavaliers with 24 points (9-15 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 4-6 FT), five rebounds, one assist, two blocks and two steals in 33 minutes. It was the second-year forward's best scoring performance since Oct. 29, when he dropped a season-high 27 points on the Spurs. Buzelis has managed just 18 points combined in his prior two games and had gone six straight without reaching 20, averaging just 12.8 points, 4.5 boards, 1.8 assists, 1.0 steals and 0.8 blocks during that rough patch.

• Bulls' Matas Buzelis: Dry spell continues

  4D ago • By RotoWire

  Buzelis amassed nine points (3-7 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 3-4 FT), one rebound, one assist and one block over 22 minutes during Wednesday's 127-111 win over Cleveland. Buzelis continues to play limited minutes despite starting, resulting in muted production over the past week. In three games during that time, he has averaged just 9.3 points and 1.0 blocks in 23.2 minutes per contest. As per usual, it appears the Bulls will once again strive for mediocrity by securing a play-in spot. Buzelis is someone fantasy managers will want to try and hold, although moving on from him might help you avoid more disappointing lines.

  6D ago • By RotoWire

  Buzelis had nine points (3-5 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds, three assists and one steal in 24 minutes during Sunday's 114-104 loss to the Pelicans. It was a fairly quiet showing for the second-year forward, but he's performed well overall so far this season and is locked into a starting role at power forward. Buzelis has averaged 13.1 points, 5.9 rebounds, 2.0 assists, 1.7 blocks and 0.9 steals per contest in his last 15 games, chipping in across the board for the Bulls.

• Bulls' Matas Buzelis: Scores 16 points with four stocks

  14D ago • By RotoWire

  Buzelis provided 16 points (7-12 FG, 2-5 3Pt), three rebounds, one assist, one block and three steals across 25 minutes during Sunday's 123-91 loss to the Warriors. Buzelis passed 1,000 career points in this one and finished as Chicago's second leading scorer, but the end result was yet another loss for the Bulls. This team has now lost seven straight games, but they'll have an excellent chance of turning things around Friday with a matchup against the 7-17 Hornets.
