Chicago Bulls point guard Derrick Rose participated in five-on-five practice drills for what is believed to be the first time this season during Monday’s practice at the Berto Center.

“He did what everyone else did,” Chicago Bulls Head Coach Tom Thibodeau said. “Just a normal practice.”

All season long, the Bulls have told reporters that Rose is right on schedule with his rehab work as reporters speculated on a post-All Star return. That didn’t change Monday during the team’s first post-All-Star break practice.

“He’s doing what he should be doing,” Thibodeau said. “He’s focused on his rehab, doing more and more. We just have to be patient. When he’s ready, he’ll go.”
