Luol Deng – DownToBuck

Luol Deng 18 Points Full Highlights (2/5/2019)

Luol Deng had better be mentoring the HECK out of Andrew Wiggins right now. Not only is this this old dude (only 33, but the mileage of a 50-year-old) the exact kind of knowledgeable veteran to bestow wisdom upon the young and struggling Wiggins, but he actually has the upper hand in basketball skill as…

Luol Deng 15 Points Full Highlights (1/27/2019)

Here’s the deal: the last time I uploaded a highlight video depicting the on-court exploits of Luol Deng was way back in 2016. 2016. Repeated for emphasis. Does anyone even remember anything that happened all the way back then? Because I sure don’t. Who even won the championship that season? Those highlights were of the…

Luol Deng 22 Points Full Highlights (12/11/2016)

Luol Deng’s 4 years at 72 million contract was regarded, at the time of signing, as a good if not great move for the Lakers. Timofey Mozgov’s slightly smaller 4 years at 64 million contract was regarded with disblief and laughter. I was among those poking fun at the Mozgov contract. The Deng contract I…

Luol Deng 31 Points Full Highlights (4/17/2016)

I’m really sorry for all those times that I said the Heat were done earlier in the season. That was stupid of me to say and I really feel bad about it. To be fair to me, though, who could have anticipated that Luol “The Man from Sudan” Deng (listen up basketball-reference you know I…

Luol Deng 27 Points Full Highlights (2/20/2016)

I hadn’t made Luol Deng highlights the whole season, and now I’m doing them on consecutive nights? What’s the deal here? The deal here, I guess, is that Dwyane Wade is dead and Pat Riley has told Deng to play as much like a him as possible so that the fans don’t realize that Wade…

Luol Deng 30 Points Full Highlights (2/19/2016)

Luol Deng was on the Cavaliers at one point. Does that blow your mind or what? I don’t feel like anyone even noticed that happen. In most people’s memories of his career, he jumps straight from Chicago to play out his twilight years in Miami. I even made highlights of one of his games in…

Luol Deng 23 Points Full Highlights (1/23/2015)

We haven’t heard a lot about Luol Deng since he went to the Heat. He’s only the third banana on his new team, a team that is suffering noticeably from the departure of Ray Allen. Another thing causing his relative anonymity this year is his apparent inability to dunk. Dunking is the machinery that drives…

Luol Deng 27 Points Full Highlights (1/14/2014)

Luol Deng must be so relieved. After years of playing 40 minutes per game and having to be accountable on the defensive end, he gets to go to a team with lower minutes requirements where he gets to run and chuck without having to play defense at all. Not everyone is so lucky to be…

Luol Deng 33 Points Full Highlights (1/11/2013)

Luol “Based” Deng is probably getting tired of playing 40 minutes per night. Being ridden harder than 2005-era Kobe has got to have some negative effects on one’s performance. It’s really obvious when Deng staggers over to the bench in the middle of a play and passes out into the tray of Gatorade cups. But…
