The Chicago Bulls were expecting to have Derrick Rose back by late January, but a Chicago Tribune report states the Bulls may have to wait even longer for their franchise player.

Rose, a former NBA MVP, tore his left ACL in the closing minutes of the Bulls first-round playoff game against the Philadelphia 76ers. In June, the Bulls selected Kentucky guard Marquis Teague in the draft to help in the backcourt while Rose rehabs.
