Bulls struggle at 1-7; Pippen urges Buzelis to shoot more
Summary

The Chicago Bulls are 1-7 this season and last in three-point shooting percentage. Pippen Ain’t Easy reports that Matas Buzelis needs to adopt a more aggressive offensive style, as his current passivity is hurting the team's performance. The Bulls rank 29th in field goal percentage and have been criticized for their offensive inefficiency. Buzelis is currently averaging 13.0 points and struggling with a career-low shooting percentage from deep. As they look to improve, the Bulls must adapt their offensive strategy to better utilize the skills of Buzelis and rookie Caleb Wilson.
