Injured Chicago Bulls point guard Derrick Rose told ESPNChicago.com on Thursday that he still doesn't have an exact return date in mind. Rose has less than a month remaining to return before the Bulls enter postseason play.
"It could be tomorrow and I feel like I could play the next game," said Rose, who tore the anterior cruciate ligament in his knee during the playoffs last year. "Nobody knows but God."
Bulls coach Tom Thibodeau said Rose was most likely out for Thursday night's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. In February, Rose told USA Today that he was in the "high 80s" as far as being back to 100 percent healthy, but did not want to put a percentage on this health after the Bulls' Thursday shootaround.
"I really don't know right now," Rose said. "I don't want to place no percentage on it, but I just know that I'm close and I'm taking every day serious and just becoming a professional."
