He played 2 minutes, but made the big play late.
Craziest game I have ever watched. Minnesota blew an 11 point lead with under 4 left, and then Houston blew a 13 point lead in OT.
How come Ayo didn’t play
Sore calf.
Ayo with a triple-double tonight. Already has 16 points, 15 rebounds and 10 assists with 9 minutes to play.
What a blessing to get traded. Perfect fit in Minnesota.
Looks like he’s gonna finish with 18 pts, 15 rebounds and 12 assists.
As I look forward to the FF, I am so grateful to Ayo. None of this happens without his dedication to the Illini.

that's shockingly low number of triple doubles for a franchise in the NBA? maybe I'm just used to seeing Westbrook and jokic pump them out every other night over the past few years

Those jerseys are...something. At least Will looks good in the video!
The Wiz have 4 or 5 uniform combinations and every single one of them looks like the ugliest uniforms in the local YMCA league.

lotta very sarcastic (and well deserved) Bulls comments on the ether

The Bulls did Ayo a favor by trading him. He can actually win and really showcase his skills now.
Sucks for Bulls fans, but as an Ayo fan, I am very happy he is getting the opportunity in Minnesota.
As more of an Ayo fan than a Bulls fan (I live in the Chicago area now, but did not grow up here, so I am a fan but pretty casual about it), I think it was such a blessing in disguise for him. I think if they had kept him and decided they wanted to re-sign him he would have stayed, just because of his connection to the city. But that would have been bad for his career. I'm hoping that now that he's seen that life can be good with another NBA org, he'll be focused on finding the best possible situation for himself this offseason.
its specifically referencing those point/rebound totals as part of a triple double. quick check and the Twolves have 44 total triple doubles in their history
crazy thing is he was one assist shy of having completed the triple double in the 3rd quarter
Further perspective:
Larry Bird. Nikola Jokić. Ayo Dosunmu. The three players in NBA history with 15+ PTS / 60+ FG% / 15+ REB / 10+ AST / 3 + STL / <1 TO
Pretty good company . . .
That means zero turnovers. Did you mean one or less?
