By Mike McGraw (Daily Herald)But Rose told reporters he managed to consume an entire waffle Monday morning. A good one, too, not a frozen, toaster waffle.
“I'm eating a little bit more today,” Rose said. “If anything, that should be a good sign.”
For the most part, it was a day of wellness for the Bulls.
Rose felt better and practiced at full speed. Taj Gibson was on the court two days after turning his right ankle against Indiana.
Joakim Noah, meanwhile, was set to have a cast removed from his right hand in the afternoon, which will enable him to begin full rehabilitation on his surgically repaired right thumb and participate in noncontact portions of practice.
Noah will join the Bulls on the road swing, which begins Wednesday against the Los Angeles Clippers. He tore a ligament in his right thumb during the last long road trip, on Nov. 27 at Sacramento, but he waited until Dec. 16 to have surgery.
“I'll do as much as I can without reinjuring myself,” Noah said after practicing left-handed drives to the hoop against Berto Center visitor Scottie Pippen. “I just want to be right and go out there and help the team as soon as I can.”
