Bulls’ Derrick Rose suffers orbital fracture: Five things to know
Bulls star Derrick Rose suffers orbital fracture after getting elbowed in practice

Derrick Rose was struck in the face by an elbow during today’s practice. He has sustained a left orbital fracture that will require surgery.

Bulls star Derrick Rose will have surgery on his left eye after being elbowed in the face.

The 2011 NBA MVP sustained a left orbital fracture on the first day of practice, the team said Tuesday in a release. He is scheduled for surgery on Wednesday, and a timetable for his return will be determined after the operation.

It’s the latest in a long line of injuries for Rose, and the last thing the Bulls needed with a new coach in Fred Hoiberg.

Rose missed all of the 2012-13 season after tearing his left ACL during the first round of the 2012 playoffs, and played only 10 games two years ago after tearing the meniscus in his right knee. He also had a minor procedure on the right knee late last season.
