Demar DeRozan once said you should work on improving one thing each offseason. I hope this offseason Ayo finally works on his left hand. Who knows how good he could be in the NBA if he wasn't so right dominant.
I mean AK must be sitting there and wondering- " how in the hell did we manage to get Ayo Dosunmu"
Might be the steal of the draft in my mind.
My mind is a bit prejudiced.
I understand that when Derrick Rose was introduced it made less sense to say "Chicago and U of Memphis" but damn, we are the state school !I think Ayo requested the "from Chicago"
Spotrac seems to indicate they can offer him a qualifying offer after 2023 and he would be a restricted free agent after that

I mean, Ayo mentions U of I in pretty much every interview. He's given BU credit after some of his biggest moments. I think we can just give him this one.I understand that when Derrick Rose was introduced it made less sense to say "Chicago and U of Memphis" but damn, we are the state school !
This really sucks. With the way Ayo has played, it should be interesting to see if Billy starts him over Coby and Caruso.Lonzo has a torn meniscus really sucks for the Bulls but it means Ayo will continue to be featured. Probably means they can’t use Coby in a trade as well.
With White's excellent progression, it may be better for the Bulls to hang on to him.Lonzo has a torn meniscus really sucks for the Bulls but it means Ayo will continue to be featured. Probably means they can’t use Coby in a trade as well.
Well, I guess we have to wait for Malcom to start !On being introduced "From Chicago" (from Dec. 6th after Ayo's first start)-
IMHO it was Ayo's play that made him realize he had to up his effort to keep his minutes.With White's excellent progression, it may be better for the Bulls to hang on to him.
One thing's for sure, White is a much better trade chip than he was a few weeks ago.
Kind of a gross oversimplification, no? But I'm certain Ayo's play is a factor, quite possibly a big one.IMHO it was Ayo's play that made him realize he had to up his effort to keep his minutes.

Yeah he's definitely not just a 3 point shooter, but I meant one-dimensional more in the sense that he's only a scorer (and primarily scores as a jump shooter). Not a rebounder, not a playmaker/facilitator for others, not a plus defender. He's one of the best in college at what he does well, and that skill is one of the most important in the game, but he's pretty limited to just that contribution and is unfortunately a negative on the other end. Don't mean to sound like I'm hating on Plummer here -- he's been so big for our team this year -- but the above is why I don't think you can put Plummer above a multi-faceted player like Rice.Yes, he is a shooter, but he can get to the rack and finish pretty well against tough defense. That impresses me. He also hits the mid-range shot.
Who said that? Just curious if it is one of the WSCR knuckleheads or someone reputable.Bulls need a big man if they want to win a championship. They were saying today on Chicago radio that the Bulls will most likely have to choose between trading Coby, Williams or Ayo to get a big man and it’s sounding like there’s a possibility Ayo is gonna be the odd man out or they’re going to have to hit the buyout market. Personally I can’t see them trading Ayo at this point on his absurdly value-friendly salary but just passing along what I heard today.
They have to make the money work in a trade and Ayo’s would not bring anyone in trade that they’d wantBulls need a big man if they want to win a championship.
