Gibson said he is confident that with a little bit of space to clear his head, Rose will get back on the floor at some point in the near future.
“Derrick is a good thinker,” Gibson said. “He thinks a lot. He’s a real smart guy, so if he needs to get away, let him get away, let him adjust, and he’ll come back. He’s a tough guy. He’s from Chicago, man.”
