Kyrylo Fesenko will sign a non-guaranteed veteran's minimum with the Chicago Bulls.

Fesenko was previously with the Jazz and Pacers.

Like everyone around the NBA, Jannero Pargo was devastated to see Derrick Rose go down with a torn ACL in late April. Pargo hates when players suffer injuries, never mind a former Bulls teammate and Chicago native like Rose.

“You just feel bad for a guy who has worked so hard and accomplished what he’s accomplished,” Pargo told RealGM on Saturday during the “Peace Basketball Tournament” at St. Sabina gym. “You don’t want anybody to get hurt in this league, especially a guy like Derrick who’s very humble and everybody loves him around the league. I just felt bad.”

Pargo still had high praise for the Bulls, especially Rose’s temporary replacement as the starting point guard, Kirk Hinrich – with whom Pargo has spent four out of his eight NBA seasons. Now 31 years old and coming off two straight injury-plagued seasons, Hinrich clearly doesn’t seem as reliable as he once was and many across the league believe he has taken steps back on both ends of the court.

And even so, Pargo is adamant that his longtime backcourt mate hasn’t lost a step and can still impact the game like he always has: With shooting, gritty defense and a high-character presence.

“Not at all,” Pargo said when asked whether Hinrich has regressed over the past two seasons. “Kirk brings leadership, the type of effort you need to win. He’s a very tough defender and plays the right way. Offensively, he’s a very good shooter. I think he’s going to bring a lot to the team, especially under Thibs’ system.”

For his part, Pargo is sorting through a few NBA offers in hopes of signing a contract before training camps open up next week, as RealGM reported on Thursday.

“I’m just going over the offers that I have,” he said. “As of right now … I can’t look overseas because they’re not looking at me.”

Derrick Rose said he started jumping "a couple days ago," another step in his recovery from a torn left ACL.

"Recovery has been good," Rose said. "I'm rehabbing five times a week. On Tuesdays and Thursdays, we do lower and upper body and bike workouts. I'm starting to shoot now. I'm starting to jump a little. I'm seeing improvement every week.

"My leg does get sore sometimes, but I'm able to fight through it. My trainers are making sure I'm doing a great job telling them what's going on so they can treat me right."

Rose vowed to return better than before.

"My only goal is to win a championship," he said. "Hopefully, it's soon. I'm going to put my heart into whatever I do on and off the court. The team that we have now, we have a good shot.”

Derrick Rose and adidas will unveil the D Rose 3 Signature Collection, which will feature the Rose 3.0 shoe and also introduce a new collection of clothing and gear.

Rose signed a new deal with adidas in February for $250 million over 14 years.

Brian Scalabrine has decided to accept a color analysis and studio job with Comcast Sports New England instead of a coaching position with the Chicago Bulls.

Scalabrine will provide color analysis for 11 games of the Boston Celtics.

"A trial run for both of us," Scalabrine said.

Tom Thibodeau and the Chicago Bulls have resumed discussions on a contract extension.

Thibodeau is without a contract past the 12-13 season.

Thibodeau was the 2011 NBA Coach of the Year and Gar Forman has expressed the franchise's intension of agreeing to a long-term deal.
