    Miami Heat president Pat Riley met with free-agent forward Luol Deng in Chicago on Saturday, according to league sources.

    The meeting was described as "preliminary," according to a source, as Riley attempted to sell Deng on the benefits of joining the four-time defending Eastern Conference champions.

    Sources told ESPN The Magazine's Chris Broussard that Deng will not take a salary significantly below his market value, believed to be above $10 million annually, merely to sign with the Heat.

    If be surprised if Luol Deng agrees to a deal w/ Heat. Hearing it would be in the $6-8M range. Not sure if it works w/ big 3 salary demands.
