Luol Deng has been fighting a nasty illness since the first round of the NBA Playoffs, and he announced today that he has lost about 15 lbs in about a week. Deng had to undergo a spinal tap for viral meningitis when the illness got bad enough. Deng has been in and out of the hospital since May 1. I am not a doctor, but it sure seems like the Bulls shouldn’t rush him back, especially given their track record of not rushing their players back too soon (cough, wink, nod).
