NBA/Pro/International Basketball
Its crazy how much more he could have signed for after this season. He's obviously not hurting but man.
I seem to remember a certain poster on here saying that Ayo wouldn't be more respected in the league until he could shoot the 3 on a more consistent basis. He seems to have worked on that as is he shooting at about 40% from 3 this season.

Dude, if Ayo is a 40% three point shooter, he's going to be a star.

Career high of 29 points! Way to go, Ayo! #IlliniForLife
A certain poster?
Just about anyone following the league said that. As did the Bulls front office.

Ayo and Coby White for $19 million combined each of the next two years. If the Bulls can't make something out of a bargain like that I give up.
Eh there were many on here that thought Ayo would get a fairer shot if he went somewhere else.

I'm not sure there's a single player on the Bulls who wouldn't be better off on another team. A bizarre and ill-fitting group of players. Slightly better without Lavine (the guy they have the most money and years sunk into, hooray), but only slightly.
Ayo and Demar both scored 29 each. Vuc had 24 points and 11 rebounds. Coby White had 20. Pretty impressive showing for the Bulls with no Caruso tonight as well.Was there in person tonight wearing some Illini gear. I believe Ayo even led all scorers unless I lost count.

Ayo Dos Tres, gimme the hot sauce kid! Stacey King kills me!
Arguably best game of his career
Nice to see Ayo excelling. Shot well, drove and finished at the cup and made smart simple passes for easy buckets.

Love to see the effort but don't they have people to teach them proper form on their lifts?
I just remember the Talen Horton-Tucker debate on who would be the bigger impact college and NBA.
Ayo making a statement at both levels.

Fun fact: Talen Horton-Tucker, in his 5th NBA season, eligible for his third contract this offseason, is younger than Terrence Shannon.
It's a great matchup for him. He's big enough to disrupt Trae's flow and quick enough to blow by Trae's "ole" defense.
