Chicago Bulls rookie Matas Buzelis was an NBA Correspondent for the NBA Finals featuring the OKC Thunder and Indiana Pacers.
Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen both sit atop the list for All-NBA First Team players for the Bulls.

Another back-and-forth game went to the final seconds. With the score tied and 28 seconds to play, the Bulls called timeout. The Jazz expected Jordan to take the final shot, but he passed to a wide-open Steve Kerr, who broke the Jazz kingdom’s hearts. Final score after a final dunk, 90-88.
