Bulls forward Matas Buzelis had a chat with coach Billy Donovan about if the 19-year-old forward would spend time in the G League this season. Donovan responded that he didn’t know, but it was Buzelis’s response that resonated with Donovan.

“He said, ‘Well, I just want to let you know I have a problem with that. Whatever I gotta do to get better,’” Donovan said.

The open-minded approach for Buzelis was appreciated by Donovan, who has tempered expectations for the rookie because of his youth and inexperience.
