According to KC Johnson, Derrick Rose WILL NOT partake in the Skills Challenge, but WILL play in the All-Star game.

"I'm going to play in that game."

From the horse's mouth.

"It's sore a little bit, but I'm getting a lot of treatment. Right now, I probably won't do the Skills Challenge. But every day I'm getting better. This won't be a long-time thing."

I'll take it. Although I was looking forward to Derrick whooping Jennings in the Skills Challenge. But I'll take it.
