It’s not ideal to be without Patrick Williams.
After all, the Bulls did extend the forward to a five-year, $90 million contract last summer, and now that his left foot is acting up again it’s not exactly a return on investment.
Don’t tell that to rookie Matas Buzelis, however.
Life without Williams has meant opportunity for the 6-foot-10 rookie, and when opportunity knocks for Buzelis he doesn’t just want to take advantage of it, but he likely wants to try and dunk on it.
