Rose is listed as doubtful for Wednesday's game against the Suns, K.C. Johnson of the Chicago Tribune reports.

Analysis:

Rose suffered the left ankle sprain midway through the fourth quarter of Monday's victory over the Pacers when he landed awkwardly while trying to avoid stepping out of bounds. Although the point guard claimed the sprain wasn't a major issue, it looks like it will end up sidelining him for at least one game. Given Rose's extensive history and how early it is in the season, look for the Bulls to exercise caution and keep Rose out Wednesday, paving the way for either E'Twaun Moore or Kirk Hinrich to make the start at point guard.
