The Chicago Bulls are reportedly not looking to trade forward Luol Deng, despite the fact that he is expected to become a free agent in the summer.
Teams have been inquiring about his availability, while Deng himself has told the media that he is preparing for the possibility of being traded, as reported by ESPN.
Despite failing to agree on a contract extension before the season, the Bulls are reportedly optimistic that they will re-sign Deng next summer.
Chicago are now 9-16 for the season having lost their fourth consecutive game on Thursday night and have dropped eight of their last 10 contests to fall to 10th place in the Eastern Conference.
