Bulls' Ayo Dosunmu: Will undergo season-ending surgery
The Bulls announced Sunday that Dosunmu will undergo season-ending surgery to address left shoulder instability.
Dosunmu had missed three straight contests due to a left shoulder subluxation before returning to play in Friday's win over the Raptors, finishing with 11 points (5-9 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT), five rebounds, two assists and one steal across 23 minutes. However, with Dosunmu's shoulder still presenting complications, he'll be shut down for the season and get surgery to provide a more permanent fix for the injruy. The 25-year-old will end the season with averages of 12.3 points, 4.5 assists, 3.5 rebounds, 1.3 three-pointers and 0.9 steals across 30.3 minutes per game in 46 appearances. With Dosunmu sidelined, Kevin Huerter, Dalen Terry and Julian Phillips are all candidates to take on some extra minutes.

Bulls' Ayo Dosunmu: Won't play Sunday
Dosunmu is out for Sunday's game versus the Pacers due to a left shoulder subluxation.
Dosunmu returned to action Friday after missing Chicago's previous three contests due to his shoulder injury. However, the 24-year-old guard's absence against Indiana should open up more minutes for Kevin Huerter (knee) and Jevon Carter. Dosunmu's next chance to suit up is Tuesday's matchup with Cleveland.

Bulls' Ayo Dosunmu: Solid numbers in return
Dosunmu (shoulder) registered 11 points (5-9 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT), five rebounds, two assists and one steal across 23 minutes in Friday's 125-115 overtime win over the Raptors.
Sidelined for the previous three games with a left shoulder subluxation, Dosunmu returned to a bench role after starting nine of his prior 10 appearances. The Bulls were without Nikola Vucevic (calf) and Patrick Williams (quadricep) on Friday, but with the team at full strength in the backcourt, it's unclear if Dosunmu will have an opportunity to see a dramatic increase in playing time in future contests. If his minutes remain in the 20-to-25 range, Dosunmu will likely be more of a 14-team league option rather than a player who needs to be rostered in 12-team leagues.

He's alternated between the starting lineup and the bench in recent weeks, starting in nine of his 15 appearances since the beginning of January.

Bulls' Ayo Dosunmu: Questionable for Friday
Dosunmu (shoulder) is questionable for Friday's game against the Raptors, Blake Murphy of Sportsnet.ca reports.
Dosunmu injured his shoulder in last Thursday's overtime loss to the Knicks, and he's in danger of missing a fourth game in a row Friday. If the 25-year-old swingman cannot give it a go against Toronto, the Bulls would likely divvy up his vacated minutes among Lonzo Ball, Kevin Huerter and Matas Buzelis.

Dosunmu (shoulder) is out for Wednesday's game against the Clippers, Cody Westerlund of 670TheScore.com reports.
It'll be a third straight absence due to a shoulder injury for Dosunmu, who carries no clear timeline for a return while dealing with soreness. His next chance to play comes Friday against Toronto.

Bulls' Ayo Dosunmu: Listed questionable for Wednesday
Dosunmu (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game versus the Clippers.
Dosunmu injured his left shoulder in Thursday's overtime loss to the Knicks and was held out Saturday against the Suns with what was described as instability in his shoulder. However, the questionable tag suggests that the Bulls view him as day-to-day going forward. If Dosunmu misses additional time, guys like Kevin Huerter, Julian Phillips and Matas Buzelis could see increased run with Patrick Williams (quadriceps) sidelined at the moment.

Bulls' Ayo Dosunmu: Lacks return timeline
Bulls head coach Billy Donovan said prior to Saturday's 121-117 loss to the Suns that Dosunmu (shoulder) is "pretty sore" and is without a timeline for a return, Cody Westerlund of 670TheScore.com reports.
Dosunmu injured his left shoulder in Thursday's 113-111 overtime loss to the Knicks, prompting the Bulls to rule him out for Saturday's contest. With Donovan noting that Dosunmu has "instability in his shoulder that he has to stay on top of," the fourth-year guard seems destined to sit out Monday's game in Philadelphia before the Bulls re-evaluate him upon returning to Chicago. While Dosunmu was sidelined Saturday along with Patrick Williams (quadricep) -- who is expected to miss at least two weeks -- Kevin Huerter (30 minutes) and Julian Phillips (24 minutes) saw the most notable boosts in playing time.

Bulls' Ayo Dosunmu: Nursing left shoulder injury
Dosunmu (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Suns.
Dosunmu scored just five points on 25.0 percent shooting during Thursday's overtime loss to the Knicks, and it appears he came out of that contest worse for wear with a sore left shoulder. Dalen Terry, Kevin Huerter and Julian Phillips would be candidates to see a heavier workload off the bench should Dosumu be ruled out for Saturday's contest.

Bulls' Ayo Dosunmu: Shooting woes in loss
Dosunmu notched five points (2-8 FG, 1-5 3Pt), five rebounds, three assists and one steal over 28 minutes during Thursday's 113-111 overtime loss to the Knicks.
Dosunmu failed to get much of anything going as a member of the second unit following nine consecutive starts. However, he said postgame that he suffered a stinger in his left arm/shoulder, playing in the fourth quarter despite not being able to raise his arm over his head, according to K.C. Johnson of NBC Sports Chicago. The 25-year-old scored fewer than six points for the first time since Dec. 23, and he has also struggled from beyond the arc of late. Over his last five outings, Dosunmu has shot only 19.0 percent from downtown.

Bulls' Ayo Dosunmu: Dealing with illness
Dosunmu was sent home from Monday's practice due to an illness, K.C. Johnson of NBC Sports Chicago reports.
Dosunmu's status for Tuesday's game against the Pistons is up in the air, but there should be some clarity when the Bulls release their injury report Monday evening. Lonzo Ball (illness) will likely be held out Tuesday, so the Bulls may need Kevin Huerter and Tre Jones to soak up some backcourt minutes.

Bulls' Ayo Dosunmu: Just misses double-double Tuesday
Dosunmu provided 21 points (8-11 FG, 2-2 3Pt, 3-3 FT), two rebounds, nine assists, one block and one steal in 29 minutes during Tuesday's 133-124 win over the Heat.
Making his fifth straight start, the 2021 second-round pick led the Bulls in assists and nearly came away with his second double-double of the season. Dosunmu has been making an impact in Chicago's small-ball lineup, averaging 14.0 points, 5.6 assists, 3.0 boards, 2.4 threes, 1.0 steals and 0.8 blocks during his latest stint in the starting five, but with rookie forward Matas Buzelis beginning to catch fire and Nikola Vucevic on the trade block, the Bulls' frontcourt could look very different by the weekend.
