Basketball News & NBA Rumors

Specific information regarding Derrick Rose’s rehabilitation from surgery on his left knee has been scarce.

But from the smiles emanating from Rose, it’s clear the franchise centerpiece remains on target to return at some point in the coming weeks.

Most guesses have focused on late February or early March, just after the All-Star break. Forman said there is no specific game targeted for Rose’s return.

“He’s right on schedule with where we thought he would be,” Forman said. “This next step is what he’s doing on the floor. As soon as he has completed that step satisfactorily we’ll move on to the next step, which will be full practices with full contact for a length of time.”
