Three-time NBA All-Star and Most Valuable Player in 2011, Derrick Rose, recently had his second surgery on the same torn meniscus in his right knee that he tore in 2013 playing against the Portland Trail Blazers.
Giuliano's Comment: Derrick Rose is a valuable player in the NBA organization. However, his right knee is still determining if he will be able to return. He has recently gotten surgery for the second time on that knee on February 27th. The doctors say the surgery went well, and predicted a 4-6 week of rehabilitation to possible return to the court. The three main devices that will give Derrick Rose the strength to play in the NBA again are working on a solid pro dual leg extension or curl machine daily. Also, when he walks, run, or plays basketball he should always have an X-Factor knee brace. The finally device to rehabilitate his knee is Rose could use therapeutic ultrasound administration to bring pulse frequencies through the knee to lessen the pain.

  1. Derrick Rose has had some bad luck recently with injuries, but he will back to help the Bulls complete for the title. I do not see why people always bash on Derrick for getting hurt it is not like he wants too. I believe the Bulls need to continue to build around Derrick because he is a major part of the organization.

  2. I think that the Bulls should keep Rose around because he is a key player. Luckily torn meniscus is a common injury and it is an easy fix. As long as Rose keeps up with his rehab and keeps his muscle built up around his knee he should be ok. Knees are a tricky body part for athletes, especially basketball players, because of the constant stop go action. In the end I don't think that the NBA or the Bulls will turn their back on Rose because he is a talented player and a huge asset to both organizations. Rose is going to have to keep his health in his own mind though. Even though a torn meniscus is not a serious injury the long term wear and tear of being a professional athlete can create serious injuries, short term and long term.
