Derrick Rose Cuts Himself In Bed
Derrick RoseWhile Derrick Rose is certainly no lock for the All-Star game in February, he better be more careful if he hopes to make it to Phoenix in one piece.
According to a Bulls public relations source, the rookie guard cut himself at home while slicing an apple in bed. Rose reportedly put the knife on his bed and then later rolled over onto the knife, cutting his arm.
Rose received 10 stitches in his arm but is expected to play Tuesday night against the Knicks at the United Center.

Didn’t Kobe’s hand “accidentally” go through a window moving boxes around or something a few years ago? Where do they come up with these terrible lies?

this sounds a lot like when robert whaley (out of the league now) missed a few games because of a large gash that he recieved “when he disarmed his baby son who was holding a large knife in the kitchen”.
