Rose was in the midst of perhaps his best game of the season when he turned his ankle, and after the game, he seemed optimistic that the injury wouldn’t keep him out too long.

“All of it’s positive,” Rose said, via ESPN. “For what I went through and all I’ve been through, just me playing and feeling all right after the game. Of course, my ankle’s a little bit sore, but I’m just happy nothing’s tore or broken. So I’ll be all right.”
