Bulls trade Ayo Dosunmu to Timberwolves, sources say - ESPN

The Minnesota Timberwolves have acquired guard Ayo Dosunmu in a four-player trade with the Chicago Bulls, sources told ESPN.

The trade also sends Julian Phillips to the Timberwolves, while the Bulls receive Rob Dillingham, Leonard Miller and four second-round draft picks, according to sources.

The move bolsters the Wolves at guard with a two-way contributor in Dosunmu and continues the roster teardown in Chicago, which has been among the most active teams ahead of Thursday's NBA trade deadline.

Dosunmu, 26, is having a career year for the Bulls, averaging 15.0 points on 51% shooting and 45% from 3-point range, the eighth-best percentage in the league.

The Bulls (24-27), who entered Thursday in 10th place in the Eastern Conference, continued a rosterwide overhaul by parting with Dosunmu. Chicago already has traded away top scorer Coby White, leading rebounder Nikola Vucevic and key reserves Kevin Huerter and Dalen Terry in four separate deals this week.

Dillingham joins a bevy of newly acquired guards with the Bulls, who also landed Jaden Ivey, Collin Sexton and Anfernee Simons in this week's trades. Chicago also signed former slam dunk contest champion Mac McClung to a two-way contract Thursday.

The Bulls acquired forward Guerschon Yabusele from the Knicks late Wednesday night for Terry, but Chicago is still looking for help in the frontcourt, sources told ESPN, a few hours ahead of Thursday's deadline. The Bulls also added nine second-round picks in the past week.

Dosunmu in the final year of a three-year, $21 million contract and will become an unrestricted free agent in the offseason, giving the Wolves a chance to get a look at him in the rotation before the summer.

The Wolves parted with Dillingham, the No. 8 pick in
