Deng (eye) is listed as questionable for Monday's matchup with the Bulls, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

Analysis:

Deng is one of eight players that was listed on the Heat's injury report, and his chances of being available Monday don't appear especially promising. While he didn't suffer any permanent damage to his right eye after he was poked there by the Wizards' Kelly Oubre in a game last week, Deng is still experiencing some sensitivity to light. Unless Deng shows noticeable improvement Monday morning, Justise Winslow would likely make a second straight start at small forward in Deng's stead.
