Rose Out Vs. Wizards; Bulls Sign James
(CBS) Derrick Rose's turf toe injury is worse than the Bulls originally thought and he won't play tonight against the Wizards.
670 The Score's David Schuster confirms the Bulls have signed Mike James from the NBA's Developmental League. The 36-year-old point guard is trying to make it to the United Center for tonight's game.
Schuster also reports Derrick Rose was wearing a walking boot when he arrived at the stadium. The injury is something that has bothered Rose in the past and was re-aggravated Tuesday night in Minneapolis.
