Ayo Dosunmu Paces Bulls with 23 Points, Season-High 7 Rebounds

Ayo Dosunmu led the Chicago Bulls with 23 points (8-16 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 6-6 FT), a season-high seven rebounds, and five assists in 31 minutes during Thursday's 116-113 loss to the Heat. This marked his best scoring performance since January 7th. Dosunmu capitalized on increased opportunities in the second half after Jalen Smith exited due to a calf injury, which could potentially lead to an uptick in his minutes. He was instrumental in the Bulls' late rally, making two layups and a 3-pointer to cut the deficit to three points with 2:05 remaining.
