NBA G League Ignite |
The Bulls entered this draft (which was two days instead of one like it had been since the NBA draft was shortened down to two rounds back in 1989) with just one first-round pick.[1][2] On the first night of the draft, with their only pick of the draft, the Bulls would select American-Lithuanian small forward Matas Buzelis from the now-defunct NBA G League Ignite.
