Derrick Rose rejoins New York Knicks, says COVID-19 bout was like having flu 'times 10'

NEW YORK -- Derrick Rose rejoined the New York Knicks on Monday, though it's unclear when he will play again as he recovers from COVID-19.

Looking tired, Rose detailed his struggles Monday, saying his kids also had gotten sick and they all quarantined together.

"They say everybody is different, but with me I never felt anything like that before," Rose said. "I've had the flu. It was nothing like the flu.

"It was that times 10. So like I said, I'm slowly getting back. I'm progressing every day and just trying to get back in the swing of things.
