IT'S AYO NIGHT!

Tonight, Illinois Basketball legend and Chicago Bulls rookie Ayo Dosunmu will be the 34th Illinois player to have his jersey retired.

Halftime will feature a ceremony to raise Ayo Dosunmu’s No. 11 jersey into the State Farm Center rafters.

Ayo was one of the best Illinois Basketball players in the history of the program - he helped to put the program back on the map and brought national recognition back to Champaign. It goes without saying that he deserves this honor, and will live forever in State Farm Center and the hearts of Illini fans everywhere.
