Timberwolves’ Ayo Dosunmu trade keeps looking better

Eamon Cassels of Dunking with Wolves argues that the Minnesota Timberwolves' trade for guard Ayo Dosunmu has proven to be a masterstroke. The Timberwolves acquired Dosunmu from the Chicago Bulls at the 2026 trade deadline in exchange for Rob Dillingham, Leonard Miller, and four second-round picks. Dosunmu subsequently signed a five-year, $112 million contract in the summer.

According to Cassels, Dosunmu has elevated his offensive role with Anthony Edwards out, leading the team with 19.8 points over a five-game span while averaging 16.3 points overall. The writer highlights Dosunmu's downhill driving and rim finishing, asserting that Minnesota gave up minimal rotation assets to acquire a versatile guard.
