I think Ayo is going to struggle to find any playing time on this roster. He might be heading to the Windy City Bulls to get game action injust saw this
“We’re going to have to be somewhat creative in moving players around,” Bulls coach Billy Donovan said. “I do think we have some versatility and flexibility to use if we want to play with four guards. Or if it’s not four guards, maybe it’s three guards and a forward. But the key is how these guys look playing together.”
Ayo is gonna be on the court a LOT with Pat and Coby out, probably guarding a lot of 3s. It'll only be for a couple games but it'll be nice to see how he meshes with our starters in a decent chunk of playing time.
Lonzo
Zach
Ayo
DJJ
Vuc
or with the bench
Caruso
Ayo
Troy Brown
Alize/Simonovic/Stanley Johnson
Tony Bradley/Simonovic
I love how they built this team, it can withstand a couple of injuries due to versatility
Agreed. We are into getting wins now. The young player development thing is over with. Ayo showed some good defense and hustle in summer league but he also showed his offense is not there. I dont expect him or simonovic to get much playing time this season.I think Ayo is going to struggle to find any playing time on this roster.

I need to see Lonzo/Caruso/Zach on the court at the same time
Even with the injuries I agree. Although Sam Smith did have a write up this weekend about how Ayo is impressing at camp and showing something on the defensive end which we’ll need along with Caruso playing with combos of Zach/Demar/Coby on the perimeter. To find any consistent minutes behind Zach Zo Demar Caruso Coby he would have to be showing something special for a 2nd round pick. It isn’t an indictment on Ayo either, he was a second round pick at the end of the dayAyo is gonna be in G League with Simonovic
I dont see him getting much time
