Wolves Humbled, Matas Getting Fined? Sellers 40-Ball, & Other Bulls Bullets

Two days, two straight wins for the Chicago Bulls. And that too, without Caleb Wilson.

And just like that, Chicago tripled its win total in one weekend.

    We did see glimpses of this when they played the Philadelphia 76ers and the San Antonio Spurs over the last week. But I don’t think any of us expected the tides to turn this quickly.

    Following their win last night, hear from the Timberwolves and how they reacted postgame after losing to Chicago. Also, Matas Buzelis may be picking up a fine, Tre Jones puts on a show in front of his hometown crowd, and Jaylin Sellers continues to dominate down in the G League.

    Let’s talk Bulls basketball.

    Minnesota Timberwolves guard Ayo Dosunmu races Chicago Bulls forward Matas Buzelis down the court. Coming into last night’s game, the Minnesota Timberwolves were heavy favorites. Despite being shorthanded, they had the No. 1 defense in the NBA and were the league’s best rebounding team. But last night, the Bulls not only outrebounded the Wolves but also outdefended them. Considering Chicago’s own struggles to start the season, the injuries, and the fact that they were playing the second night of a back-to-back after a rather unusual travel day, this was certainly a humbling loss for Minnesota. LaMelo Ball, who struggled heavily on the night, shooting 7-of-25 from the field and 4-of-19 from three, seemed particularly humbled by the result.

    “Yeah, I mean shit, we got our head busted in,” said Ball. “Like a little ass whooping by your pops or something, get you back on track, shit, we need that.”

    It’s officially confirmed: the Bulls are the living embodiment of LaVar Ball.

    “They played well, they made shots. And they just beat us to be honest. They just played better than us,” said Jaden, sounding dejected.

    A bit of a reality check for the Wolves, who now know that even without Anthony Edwards, they remain vulnerable. But the fact that the Bulls were the ones to deliver that reality check is the real story here.

    — SneakerReporter (@SneakerReporter) November 15, 2026 The Bulls, meanwhile, were feeling pretty confident themselves. Tre Jones, an Apple Valley, Minnesota native, finished with 16 points, four assists and two blocks off the bench, with his family in attendance. And after the win, he was already reflecting on how the season has gone so far.

    “We had a rough start to the season. Then we dropped a couple of players due to injuries. Obviously Caleb, out with his hand. We just needed to come together as a team. No one is going to feel bad for us… We knew that we had to dig deep tonight and that’s exactly what we did.”

After making a free throw early in the fourth quarter, Buzelis was caught flipping off a Minnesota fan in attendance. That’s the sort of thing the NBA typically hands out fines of tens of thousands of dollars for. Chump change for Matas, perhaps, but not exactly the best look for his PR. Then again, he did have one of his best games of the season so far, so maybe we let this one slide if it means he keeps playing like that.

    — Legion Hoops (@LegionHoops) November 15, 2026 And finally, the Chicago Bulls weren’t the only ones putting up big performances last night. Down in the G League, despite a 108-103 loss to the Grand Rapids Gold, two-way guard Jaylin Sellers had himself a night. Sellers finished with 40 points and six assists, shooting 58% from the field while knocking down seven threes. It’s the kind of performance you love to see from a rookie who’s still developing. Especially with an opportunity opening up on the main roster, a 40-point night like this is certainly one way to get yourself on the radar.
