Derrick Rose claimed on Monday that his decision to play against Memphis with a sore left toe was solely his own.
But the decision is more of a collective one.
"He certainly has a lot of input in it, but we all have to weigh in," coach Tom Thibodeau said. "We talk to our doctors, to (athletic trainer Fred Tedeschi). It's a collective decision."
Rose underwent treatment on Wednesday and won't practice on Thursday.
"Once the swelling is out of there, he'll be fine," Thibodeau said.
