D. Rose out again?!

 Derrick Rose Tears Meniscus in Right Knee

Over the course of his career, Derrick Rose has battled a bunch of different injuries. 

From his torn ACL to his battles with hamstring and ankle strains, D. Rose has been branded as one of the best point guards to play the game because of his tenacious in game play. 

From his laser sharp awareness and unbelievable jumping ability or unbelievable speed for a 6 ft 3 point guard, he's regarded as a great.

But for some sad reason, D. Rose has been one the athletes pummeled with injuries at the worst times.

This morning more sad news was released by ESPN that Derrick Rose would undergo yet another knee surgery to fix a torn Meniscus in his right knee, just after battling a hamstring and ankle injury recently.

Bulls' Head Coach Tom Thibodeau said this morning that, "I don't know what to say other than it's just so unfair. A guy's been through so much and you know what he's put into it. This one, any time you have surgery it's tough, but hopefully this one will be much shorter than the other ones." 

As a student athlete that has been riddled with different injuries over the course of 4 & 1/2 years of Varsity athletics, I definitely feel the pain that Derrick Rose is going through.

When you battle through so much, it takes a lot out of you to want to keep going..But Derrick has a huge fan backing because of his background, what he does for his neighborhood and his ability to be a great role model on and off the court.

So one can only pray and hope Derrick Rose Bounces back from this knee injury and disappointment. Not only for himself and the Chicago Bulls Organization, but for the game of basketball, we all love to see great athletes compete for the Championship in the summer.
