Rose has already missed 11 of the Cavs’ 18 games this season due to a lingering ankle injury and hasn’t played more than 66 games since the 2010-11 campaign.
The point guard’s loss would be a big hit to a Cavs team that currently has just one point guard available, third stringer Jose Calderon.
We’ll keep you posted on CavaliersNation.com with further updates regarding Rose’s status with the team.
