Bulls Rookie Snags Shoe Deal

In recent weeks leading up to preseason, Bulls rookie Matas Buzelis could be seen rocking Reebok gear quite often while training. Today Reebok has announced their signing of Buzelis to a shoe deal with their brand.

Reebok also endorses Chicago Sky star Angel Reese. No doubt both Reese and Buzelis will be big focal points of Reebok as they try to reestablish their basketball footwear line.

Lonzo Ball and Patrick Williams are Active in Bulls Practice

K.C. Johnson of CHSN reported that Lonzo Ball and Patrick Williams were active in Bulls practice on Oct 21, 2024. Lonzo Ball is in the early stages of a historic return to NBA play. Patrick Williams rolled his ankle in the Bulls' final preseason game against the Cleveland Cavaliers.

Lonzo Ball participated in Sunday and Monday practices without issue, per Donovan. The (amazing) comeback story continues.

Bulls are controlling Ball in portions of practice, just as they’re placing minutes restrictions in games on him. But Donovan said he’s impressed w/ Ball

Dalen Terry (knee soreness) returned to practice. Patrick Williams, who left last preseason game with an ankle injury, practiced.
