Luol Deng out of town
Published: 21st Jul 08 8:01 pm
Things are not looking up for Luol Deng returning to the Chicago Bulls after the upcoming season, reports the National Post.
Deng is a restricted free, and has told the Bulls they have two weeks to sign him to a long term contract or he will leave the team following the season. He will sign the one-year qualifying offer of $4.5 million and test the free agency market after the season, according to Yahoo!
The Chicago Bulls attempted to resign both Deng and Ben Gordon to long term contacts last October. The team offered each about $55 million for four years.
Deng is going to be playing for Great Britain in the summer Olympics this summer and reports to the team in two weeks.
Last season he averaged 17 points per game and 6.3 rebounds.

Deng should get signed by the Bulls. He’s a good young player. However, I think they’re probably just shopping him since they got Rose. Saw this on rootzoo.com – keep the good work comin’ our way!
