Now feels like as good of a time as any to point out that Ayo Dosunmu led the Bulls tonight in +/- at +28, playing 28 minutes of of the bench, scoring 20 on 7/10 from the field (3/5 from 3PT), 3/3 FT, while notching 6 rebounds and 4 assists.

Josh and Reggie, Donny and Bhebhe, Jamal realizing what just happened, and the play that turned the entire game around.
