Dosunmu (quadriceps) is no longer on a minutes restriction ahead of Monday's game against the Spurs, K.C. Johnson of Chicago Sports Network reports.
Dosunmu missed a pair of outings to open the month of November due to a quadriceps issue, which led to a minutes limit in each of his past two appearances. Now that he's become further removed from the injury, the swingman is ready to handle a full allotment of playing time in Monday's tilt. It's a timely boost for the Bulls, who will be without top playmaker Josh Giddey (ankle).

Rotowire
Dosunmu totaled 22 points (8-10 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 5-6 FT), four rebounds, nine assists and one steal in 29 minutes during Friday's 135-125 victory over the Knicks.
Dosunmu got back on track in the win, scoring at least 20 points for the second time in the past three games. Despite coming off the bench, it's been a relatively strong start to the season for Dosunmu, averaging 16.2 points, 3.0 rebounds, 3.2 assists and 2.0 three-pointers in 26.1 minutes per game.

It was Tre Jones who filled Coby White's (calf) spot in the first unit, but Dosunmu still handled meaningful minutes off the bench.
