Britain’s
Luol Deng has signed a one-year NBA deal with the Minnesota Timberwolves, becoming the fourth former Chicago Bulls player to join ex-Bulls coach Tom Thibodeau’s squad.
The 33-year-old South Sudanese-born forward, reportedly set to make $2.4 million (Dh8.8 million) in his 15th NBA campaign, spent his first 9 1/2 league seasons with the Bulls before being traded to Cleveland. Deng has also played for the Miami Heat and Los Angeles Lakers, who waived him earlier this month. (AFP)
