Calling it like having the flu "times 10," Derrick Rose said Monday that he and several members of his family, including his children, had COVID-19.
Nearly three weeks after his first positive test, Rose was cleared Monday to play again as he was removed from the NBA’s health and safety protocols list. Rose has missed eight straight games. He is still working on regaining his strength and conditioning and it is unclear when he will be able to play in a game.
It was evident in his Zoom call with reporters that the experience impacted him both emotionally and physically.
