Ayo Dosunmu caps stellar rookie campaign with All-Rookie honors

If the 2021 NBA draft was redone, at least according to a media voting panel, the Bulls have themselves a lottery pick.

That's because Bulls rookie Ayo Dosunmu, the 38th selection in last year's NBA draft, was named part of the 2022 NBA All-Rookie team, a second-team selection.

Dosunmu became the lowest selected player to make All-Rookie just behind New Orleans' Herb Jones, also a second-round selection at No. 35. The other second-teamers were Denver's Bones Hyland at No. 26, Indiana's Chris Duarte at No. 13 and Oklahoma City's Josh Giddey at No. 6.

The first-teamers generally were the top drafted players from last year with Scottie Barnes (4), Cade Cunningham (1) and Evan Mobley (3), all unanimous choices.
