Matas Buzelis Fantasy Stats

Chicago Bulls forward Matas Buzelis (illness) will officially miss his third game in a row on Thursday. Buzelis will remain sidelined against the Washington Wizards due to a lingering illness. There are only a few games left in the regular season, so it's unclear if Buzelis will play again this season. The continued absence of Buzelis should mean that Leonard Miller keeps getting an extended look in the rotation. The second-year forward finished with 13 points and eight rebounds across 25 minutes of action during Tuesday's game. He figures to be a decent streaming option while Buzelis is out.
