Just one day after having a meniscectomy to repair a torn medial meniscus in his right knee, Derrick Rose was back at the Chicago Bulls’ training facility on Saturday beginning his rehab process.

“He’s good,” Bulls coach Tom Thibodeau said. “He came in, started his rehab, it’s good.”

Bulls general manager Gar Forman said Friday the organization expects Rose to be back on the floor within 4-6 weeks. Thibodeau wouldn’t divulge exactly what Rose was able to do, but did say the process was moving forward.

“It’s just the initial steps,” Thibodeau said. “But we’re cautiously optimistic, he’s in good spirits. He’s on it, so it’s good.”
