That has made the Bulls' recent success without them even more remarkable—closing out the Brooklyn Nets, and then taking Game 1 from the Miami Heat.
Jimmy Butler, who has taken many of Deng's responsibilities, finally got a brief rest after playing all 48 minutes of the previous three games. But he wasn't as dynamic.
Daequan Cook and Marquis Teague, pressed into reserve duty with Butler and Robinson elevated, looked overmatched, missing all nine of their shots.
Deng lost 25 pounds due to complications from a spinal tap, an experience he called "scary," and one that hasn't allowed him to resume basketball activities.
