Report: Cavaliers not interested in re-signing Deng

The Cleveland Cavaliers have reportedly shown no interest in re-signing small forward Luol Deng this off-season.

The Briton moved to Cleveland in a trade from the Chicago Bulls midway through the 2013-14 NBA season.

According to Yahoo Sports, the team could increase their chances of keeping the veteran if they hired former Bulls assistant Adrian Griffin as their new head coach, but the Akron Beacon Journal says that the team have not expressed an interest in holding on to Deng.

Deng averaged 14.3 points per game during his 40 appearances for the Cavaliers.
