There's good news on the injury front, as Chicago Bulls point guard Derrick Rose says his back has felt a lot better in recent days. He did not even need to get treatment on it while he was in Orlando for the 2012 NBA All-Star game.
Deng's wrist is fine and D-Rose's back is so good, he says he didn't even get treatment in Orlando. #Bulls
