Luol Deng is likely to miss some time due to ongoing swelling in his right hand.

Deng said he has bone bruises on the thumb and index finger.

X-rays came back negative Wednesday, but because of ongoing swelling, a possible MRI has been delayed, leaving Deng uncertain of his timetable.

Deng was injured during the first half of Wednesday's home loss to the Atlanta Hawks when called for a charge.
