Bulls' Ayo Dosunmu gets bigger role with Lonzo Ball out

CHICAGO -- With Lonzo Ball sidelined to begin the season, the Chicago Bulls are looking to second year point guard Ayo Dosunmu to provide leadership while he's in the starting lineup.

"He has no problem leading," coach Billy Donovan said Thursday. "If he thinks he's got something to say to somebody that can help the team or help that individual, he does it and he does it in the right way. He's very, very respectful of his teammates. He communicates well with his teammates. But there's certain things he'll say from a leadership standpoint that the group needs to do better or an individual player needs to do better and he has no problem saying anything.
