Derrick Rose (ankle) practicing in full for Knicks

New York Knicks point guard Derrick Rose (ankle) went through a full practice again on Thursday.

What It Means:

The Knicks are going to wait until Friday before making an official decision on Rose's status, but he is trending toward returning for the team's first game after the break against the Miami Heat. Per comments from Knicks head coach Tom Thibodeau, it sounds like Rose will work with the second unit, so look for Alec Burks or Immanuel Quickley to replace Kemba Walker in the starting lineup.

Rose is averaging 24.4 minutes and 23.9 FanDuel points per game for the Knicks this season.
