Is Ayo Dosunmu playing in Game 2 tonight vs. Spurs?
The Timberwolves are getting a boost after stealing Game 1 in San Antonio.
The Minnesota Timberwolves stole Game 1 of their second-round playoff series against the San Antonio Spurs . Now, Minnesota will have reinforcements as it seeks to jump out to a 2-0 lead over Victor Wembanyama and Co. Guard Ayo Dosunmu, who missed Game 1 with a right calf injury, will return to the Timberwolves' lineup for Game 2.
He'll likely take Terrence Shannon Jr. 's spot alongside Mike Conley in the backcourt. Prior to Dosunmu's injury late in the Denver Nuggets series, he was playing some of the best basketball of his career.
The trade deadline acquisition averaged 21. 8 points on 60. 9% from the field and 54.
5% from 3 in Round 1. He carved Denver up for 43 points and five 3-pointers in Game 4. The Timberwolves desperately needed Dosunmu back considering Donte DiVincenzo, another starting guard, tore his Achilles in the first round.
