Derrick Rose is dunking. The problem is, it’s in a pre-game warmup, with no defense and the points don’t count toward the Bulls’ score.
Before the Bulls went out and lost by 30 to the Oklahoma Thunder on Sunday, the rehabbing Bulls point guard was two-hand dunking in his pre-game workout.
Thunder guard and friend Russell Westbrook had this to say about Rose: ‘‘I’ve communicated with him a few times. I see that he’s getting better. He’s almost close to coming back.’’
