EURO-NBA: Where Luol Deng definitely won the trade
Luol Deng is no longer a Bull but he wasn’t going to be at the end of the season anyway. The move to Cleveland gives the Great Britain international more control over his future. Two words. Two words give Luol Deng reason to be happy with his situation: Kyrie Irving. Deng has gone from being […]
