The frustrations for Chicago Bulls point guard Derrick Rose just continue.
After Rose sat out his third-straight game with a hamstring injury, he will now have an MRI on Monday according to the Chicago Tribune’s K.C. Johnson. Rose hasn’t played since the Bulls win over the Toronto Raptors on Dec. 28. He finished with 20 points that game, marking his second-straight 20-plus point performance.
Hoiberg said medical and training staff isn't overly concerned about Rose injury being a long-term issue.

Hoiberg on Rose: "He's got a little residual pain on the front side (knee). But nothing said its directly on any of the joints in the front"

Rose said he just "overworked himself" in offday workouts. Very upbeat. "I know I'm going to be fine," Rose said.

As you see above, Rose hasn’t ruled out not playing in Tuesday’s game against the Milwuakee Bucks. The point guard has averaged 14.4 points, 5.1 rebounds and 3.3 assists per game this season.
