Matas Buzelis
Matas Buzelis is ranked #23 among 20 eligible NBA forwards. He profiles as a bench or matchup-based option — draft late or stream when the schedule lines up. His final five games came in 1.6 points per game below his average. His minutes held steady (29.2/game vs 29.2 on the season), so the drop appears related to lower per-minute production rather than reduced playing time.
