I wasn't ready for this.

As expected. This contract might look very bad 2 years down the line, but good luck Luol.

Guy was a total pro, and after being moved to PF actually helped us win games.

We're getting thin on productive players. Thanks for the professional attitude and teaching the rooks the NBA-game. We'll miss you.

Knew his time was up with us but I wish him all the best. He was rejuvanated with us when he became a stretch 4. Had great moments for us, definitely gave it his all out there.

he had tough shoes to fill, same position as bron. and he did very welll.
i am disappointed at this loss, because he defended lebron so well everytime. now in a potential matchup against cavs, it will be winslow defending lebron.

He was a quintessential Heat type player.

He's on my list of favorite Heatles.

hated him on the Bulls, Loved him on the Heat. That guy is a team player, does all the little things. underappreciated for sure. Very high BB IQ and plays hard. Deng is the man

Good luck to him. Played great for us, but I knew from the start it would only be a 2 year thing.

After all my Muhammad Ali Luol Deng quote work during the Playoffs, first Muhammad Ali left the world, then Luol Deng left us.

Thank you Luol, that Game 1 showing against the Hornets is unforgettable.

Thank you Deng. Best Brit Ever since Ike Austin.

Lakers fan here. Give me something to bring back to the board on what we can expect from Luol - perhaps most importantly what kind of impact he could have on Ingram's development?
