My options were limited on what I could be for Halloween after hip surgery. I wish it was a costume but the crutches and brace are real. I'm gonna rebound from this injury like D.Rose. Can't wait to be back. #ballisLife #DontKnowWhatThatMeans

Lolo Jones knows the pain of injury, which makes her Derrick Rose Halloween costume so much better. The Olympic hurdler is recovering from a leg injury, so she decided to emulate another oft-injured star this year. Jones is catching hell from Bulls fans on social media who think her crutches were a joke about Rose being fragile, but she needs them to walk!

Need more proof?

Tired from the game.

This is a good Halloween costume and she didn’t mean anything mean by it. So Internet, just chill.
