Summary
Matas Buzelis is starting to look like the next STAR in Chicago — and he’s doing it at the same time the city is loaded with young, elite talent across every sport. From Caleb Williams leading the Bears into a new era, to Pete Crow-Armstrong becoming a cornerstone for the Cubs, to Connor Bedard already being one of the faces of the NHL… Chicago’s future is arriving FAST.
In this episode, Dan and Jason break down how Matas Buzelis fits into this new wave of Chicago athletes, why his skill set screams superstar potential, and what it could mean for the Bulls moving forward. Is Chicago finally building something special across all four major sports?
Also, Derrick Rose's No. 1 will be retired this weekend. After years of debate, we'll finally see it risen at the United Center. Are you excited or know this is a marketing scheme for the Bulls pocketbook?
