Rose Questionable For Game 5 With Sprained Ankle

Last updated on Tuesday, April 26, 2011

(CHICAGO, IL) - An MRI on Bulls guard Derrick Rose’s left ankle Sunday showed a sprain and nothing more.

The league MVP candidate is listed as "questionable" for tonight's game five with the Pacers, but Rose says he will play.

He turned the ankle in the first quarter of Chicago's game-four loss on Saturday.

He returned early in the second quarter and played the rest of the way, although not up to his normal standards.

Rose finished with his lowest point output in the series so far, scoring 15 points.

He went 3-16 from the field after suffering the injury.

Rose was seen wearing a walking boot on Sunday and did not practice on Monday.
