Luol Deng may need root canals to repair the damage done by Spencer Hawes' elbow on Thursday.

Deng said that his "whole bottom jaw is out of line," he's having trouble eating, and some of his teeth were knocked loose, but true to form he still played a game-high 44 minutes on Saturday. We're considering him probable for Sunday's game, and he said he'll know if he needs a root canal in "a few days." The Bulls don't have more than two days off at any point in March.
