Ayo Dosunmu is helping keep the Timberwolves on track while Anthony Edwards recovers

The Minnesota Timberwolves were forced to put their grand plan of pairing Anthony Edwards in the backcourt with LaMelo Ball on temporary hold when the knee injury nagging Edwards got to the point where surgery was recommended.Putting Ayo Dosunmu in the starting lineup in place of Edwards has produced a duo with Ball that's plenty dynamic in its own right, one reason why the Timberwolves have not fallen off track while their superstar guard is in recovery."They both can really score at all different levels," coach Chris Finch said. "Those two guys open up a lot of things for everybody."Dosunmu has 92 points in four games this month on better than 50% shooting from the floor. He's 9 for 20 from 3-point range and 17 for 18 from the free-throw line, too, averaging 35 minutes and forging noticeably strong chemistry with Ball."I like to play fast. He's faster than no other. He's like a track star out there," Ball said. "So, see him in an open lane, pretty much try to get him the ball."Dosunm
