Bulls have a glut of guards already. Coby White is a better option than Ayo, especially because he can shoot the 3 a lot better than Ayo can. Illini fans on here need to come to grips with the fact that Ayo likely won't be playing for the Bulls come October.
This. Ayo regressed last season, plain and simple. Doesn't mean he doesn't have potential or value. Just means he needs to shore up some facets of his game.
Coby White was on his way out the door until last season. Ayo will be better with the same amount of time to develop in my opinion. Would be foolish to let him walk if that's what the Bulls decide to allow! AK said he was resigning them both. Better make it happen!Bulls have a glut of guards already.

Ummm no. He will play over Coby and Caruso, and JFL. He's a better offensive and defensive player than all of them except Caruso defensively.Exactly. Ayo doesn't get playing time ahead of LaVine, Caruso, and likely Coby. Free agent signing Jevon Carter likely would take any sort of role Ayo would have on the team. If they let Ayo walk, Dalen Terry could possibly get some more minutes. They may even keep Javon Freeman-Liberty on the roster as a two-way player going between the NBA and G League rosters.

Cheers Coby gives up as many buckets as he makes or more. He definitely can shoot 3's better than Ayo at this point, abs finally improved his handles. However, Ayo runs the offense better and puts pressure on the defense which leads to way more open shooters. Also he plays defense and was one of the better defenders in the team in my opinion.I'll have what you're having

That was like a reel of "things, one by one, that he could have done for Illinois last season that would have made us way better"For those few who might still be interested:
Because they wanted veteran leadership and Because he is one of the most tenacious defenders in the NBA and has been for some time, plus he is a native Chicagoan! Who better to set an example for your young upcoming guards and team! To help build that defensive culture. I watched every game last season and Ayo played defense on a high level since being drafted. However, Derozan, Coby White, Zach Lavine, Vucevic, and others do not. Jevonte Green, Caruso, and Ayo do! Ball has been out. So yea that's why! Definitely not for offensive reasons. Matter of fact here are some highlights for you...If Ayo ran the offense better, why did they have to go sign P Bev last season?

I was hoping Podz would stay. I’m glad he found success and is in the league. That said, I’m sure the Warriors, along with many other teams in the lottery, will regret not taking Cam Whitmore. He looks like a player.Podz update for those wondering how he did.

5 games. 30 mpg.
9.0 ppg.
Shot 26% overall.
21% from three.
Rebounds and Assists numbers were decent.
Those stats make last year's Melendez look like a sharpshooter.Podz update for those wondering how he did.

I still don’t think Podz sticks in the league, but in his defense plenty of guys have shot poorly in summer league and still had good rookie seasonsPodz update for those wondering how he did.

And with the Bulls being a dysfunctional franchise for so long... maybe Ayo would find a better fit elsewhere anyway.
