Chicago Bulls rookie Matas Buzelis has officially signed his rookie scale contract and is now listed on an NBA roster for the first time. He will be joining second-year forward Julian Phillips on the team for the NBA Summer League in Las Vegas, where they will play a minimum of five games starting on July 13 against the Milwaukee Bucks.
Other players on the roster include Adama Sanogo, Henri Drell, and Andrew Funk, who played limited minutes for the NBA team on two-way contracts last season. Marcus Domask from Illinois and Chase Audige from Northwestern, both with local connections, are also part of the team. The Bulls will be coached by Billy Donovan III.
The Bulls will face off against some big names in their summer league schedule, including the Golden State Warriors on July 14 and the Detroit Pistons on July 16. They will also take on the Atlanta Hawks on July 19. Additional games will be determined based on their performance in the summer league playoffs.
Phillips is fully healthy after a right midfoot sprain that sidelined him for most of last season, while Buzelis is eager to get to work with the team as he begins his professional career. With all eyes on them as they take to the court at Las Vegas’ Thomas & Mack Center, these young players are ready to showcase their skills and make a name for themselves in the NBA Summer League action.
