The Chicago Bulls are at a crossroads — and Billy Donovan just made it very clear what he wants from Matas Buzelis going forward 😤🔥

After Matas’ viral dunk over Jalen Suggs, Donovan praised the highlight… but challenged the second-year forward to impact winning in bigger ways — rebounding, playmaking, defending, and making teammates better. We break down what that actually means for Matas’ development and why this moment matters in his early career.

Then we dive into the Michael Porter Jr. trade rumors 👀 — is MPJ really a fit for the Bulls, or is this another shiny object that doesn’t align with Chicago’s timeline? We weigh the upside, the contract risk, the injury history, and whether adding Porter actually moves this team forward.

We also preview Bulls vs Hornets with Chicago missing Josh Giddey, Coby White, and Zach Collins — which means the Bulls will have to rely on their depth more than ever. Can Tre Jones run the offense? Can Ayo, Matas, and the bench generate enough scoring? And what happens when the ball stops moving?

Plus we react to voicemails from Bulls fans on patience, tanking, player development, roster construction, and the obsession with skipping steps.

A lot to talk about… and a lot to feel 😈🔥
