Matas Just Showed The Bulls His BREAKOUT Blueprint 🔥🐂 + Powell’s Hidden Weapon & Miller WON’T Stop

Matas Buzelis may have just shown the Chicago Bulls what an efficient breakout version of his offense can look like.

On today’s Chicago Bulls Central, Haize breaks down Matas’ huge night against Milwaukee, why Norman Powell’s foul-drawing could become one of the most valuable tools on this roster, and what another strong showing from Leonard Miller, Noa Essengue and Jaylin Sellers means for Chicago’s rotation.

Matas finished with 19 points in just under 24 minutes, shooting 6-for-9 from the field and 5-for-7 from three, while adding three assists with zero turnovers. He also knocked down all four of his third-quarter threes, including three within a 55-second stretch. Pasted text

The bigger question is whether Chicago can consistently create easier opportunities for him.

If Matas becomes a shooter defenses truly respect, his gravity could also create more space for Josh Giddey, Caleb Wilson and the rest of Chicago’s offense. Pasted text

Then we get into Norman Powell’s scoring craft.

Across his last two preseason appearances, Powell scored 33 points while making only six field goals, because he went 18-for-22 from the free-throw line. That ability to create points when jumpers stop falling could become extremely valuable for a Bulls team that attempted 50 threes in each of its last two games. Pasted text

And Chicago’s young reserves continue making the rotation conversation harder.

Against Milwaukee:

🔥 Leonard Miller: 18 PTS, 7 REB, 3-for-4 from three👀 Noa Essengue: 7 PTS, 2 AST, 1 STL📈 Jaylin Sellers: 10 PTS, 2 threes, 2 steals in his preseason debutMiller has now scored 44 points across his last two games, while Sellers immediately gave Chicago another young wing worth evaluating.
