Derrick Rose Injury: MRI Confirms No Structural Damage In Back

“When we all feel he feels well enough to play, he’ll be back out there,” general manager Gar Forman said. “He could respond overnight. It could be a couple days. When it’s muscular, you don’t know. But this is positive.”

[...] “Derrick is a competitor and always wants to play,” Forman said. “We’ll be smart about this, but there’s a difference between whether a player is hurting and injured. If a guy is hurting, obviously they have to make a determination on how much they feel they can do. If a player is injured and could do greater harm, we’re not ever going to put him out there.”
