Ayo Dosunmu Had Himself A Game

Picture it: You're the Minnesota Timberwolves, and two of your starters have just gone down with severe injuries in the first half of Game 4, including your best player Anthony Edwards. You're up 2-1 in the series, but the Denver Nuggets have momentum going into the half. Well, obviously this is the time to unleash the Dosunmu. And unleash they did. https://youtu.be/btkGLagKgn8?si=eaFRH7qYHrV6W1FQ Ayo Dosunmu, a last-minute trade-deadline pickup from the Chicago Bulls earlier this year, broke out with a career-high 43 points in a career-high 42 minutes, in the Timberwolves' dramatic 112-96 win over the Nuggets to take an authoritative 3-1 lead in the series. Dosunmu shot 13-for-17, including going 5-for-5 from the three-point line, and additionally hit all 12 of his free throws—a stat line that would be insane for an all-star, let alone a role player who had been withering away in Chicago just a few months ago.
