For the first time in three years, Derrick Rose was on the court for the Chicago Bulls' Christmas Day game. And just like 2011, the opponent on the schedule was the Los Angeles Lakers.
Continuing to work his way back to MVP form, Rose had 20 points and 6 assists to help lead the Bulls to a 113-93 victory. His minutes and scoring are both up in December, and he's already played more games this month than he did in the previous two.
In his return to the Christmas lineup, Rose played in his 'Bad Dreams' adidas D Rose 5 Boost signature shoe. The nightmare-inspired sneaker is available now at adidas.com.
