Instead, Holland’s slide was stopped at No. 5 by the Pistons, and it was instead Ignite forward Matas Buzelis that fell deep into the lottery to the Bulls. At around 6-foot-10, many teams were likely scared off by Buzelis’ similarly potentially limiting offense and spotty defense.

"For his development, he's got to do that," Billy Donovan said of guarding LeBron James, which Buzelis did in Saturday's win.

After guarding Kevin Durant and DeMar DeRozan, Buzelis got LeBron James. And while he looked to have hit the rookie wall a few weeks ago, he answered with a career-high 31 points as the Bulls destroyed the Lakers.
