The 2011 NBA Most Valuable Player, who was averaging 18.4
points per game this year, reported pain in his right knee
earlier in the day, the Bulls said in a statement.
"An exam and subsequent MRI confirmed a medial meniscus tear of
the right knee," the team said.
The Bulls said a timeline for recovery would be determined after
the surgery.
The knee surgery will be the third for Rose since 2012. Those
injuries have knocked him out of most of the last two seasons.
