After playing three games in four nights -- and playing nearly 32 minutes in the third game -- Luol Deng reported no problems with his lower right leg following the Bulls' 94-90 win over the Minnesota Timberwolves Friday night.
In fact, Deng said his leg felt better Friday than it had at any point this preseason.
"Just moving wise, running jumping, I thought today was the best I felt out there," he said. "Even defensively, I was moving. This is the best I've felt so far. Even before the game, I just felt great."
Deng missed the final 2 1/2 months of the regular season and the playoffs last season with a stress fracture.
I WOULD FEEL GREAT TOO! He has a bag full of money that he hasn't earned!
