"Ayo was out of this world, man!" Who is the guy who destroyed Denver from the shadows? /VIDEO/

The Minnesota Timberwolves are on the verge of a sensation! The Wolves defeated Denver 112-96 in Game 4 of their playoff series, taking a 3-1 lead. The absolute hero of the night was the player who arrived in February as a "reinforcement" from Chicago – Ayo Dosunmu!

When the Minnesota Timberwolves acquired Dosunmu, they knew they were getting an elite defender. However, absolutely no one could have predicted such a spectacular performance.

In the absence of injured stars Anthony Edwards and Donte DiVincenzo, who suffered a torn Achilles, Ayo Dosunmu delivered a career-defining game, scoring an incredible 43 points!

Dosunmu became the first reserve player since 1976, and the legendary Fred Brown, to score such a high number of points in a playoff game. His statistics read like something out of a video game: 13/17 from the field, a perfect 5/5 from three-point range, and flawless from the free-throw line (12/12).

"Ayo was out of this world, man. Play after play, he just didn't stop," said a bewildered Chris Finch, head coach of the Wolves.

The next game in the series is scheduled to be played in Colorado on Monday night, Serbian time (Tuesday morning).
