Im glad the world now gets to see what we knew Ayo had in him the whole time.
Sportscenter with a nice piece on our guy.

no one deserves it more than Ayo

 

[Deacon05]

Absolutely amazing! Go Ayo!

Ayo going to get paid....80 Mill over 4 years... starting PG next year. IMHO

When Ayo hit the last three and got the "BANG!" from Mike Breen, I thought for a second that he might make the injecting ice water gesture. I think Illini fans would have caused the interent to collapse if that happened.

I don't think I've ever seen Ayo play with this level of confidence. His downhill speed is blistering.

Bulls front office: “Oops, we did it again!”

 

[skyIdub]

Is “flow state” this generations “the zone”?

Our boy was in the zone.

I don't think I've ever seen Ayo play with this level of confidence. His downhill speed is blistering.

I'm on record on this blog saying some time ago that Ayo had All-Star potential. He still has untapped talent - and most of all, the drive and desire to bring that talent out.

And it certainly helped him to get away from the toxic environment of the Bulls. It was nice that he got to play for his hometown team. But he was never going to thrive here.

Meanwhile, Talen Horton Tucker is in Turkey.

Believe THT still has him beat in career earnings due to leaving college earlier and getting an overly generous 2nd contract.

Ayo will eclipse him by a ton with his 3rd contract and possibly ser a 4th one as well.

 

[SescIllini]

Ayo whose knock was that he lacked NBA athleticism has turned into a pretty fast downhill guard. Not only fast, but match that with positional height/muscle abd he us a force.

DiVencenzo tore his achilles, Ayo going to play a ton in playoffs and next year. Looks like TWolves starting PG.
