Chicago Bulls superstar Derrick Rose might miss their remaining preseason as he is still recovering from a surgery that repaired a fractured left orbital.

Rose, who has battled a multitude of injuries throughout his NBA career, recently broke his left orbital in practice, which required surgery on Sept. 29. The former NBA Most Valuable Player was initially ruled out for two weeks, but the timetable for his return was tweaked by their training staff.

According to Bulls head coach Fred Hoiberg, team doctors are taking a cautious approach because there is still swelling around his eye. The rookie coach said that Rose will only be allowed to resume basketball activities once his vision returns to normal and once the swelling is gone.

"They still want him to be a little bit careful with the swelling and making sure his vision is back to where it's supposed to be, back to where it was before he got hit, before they want him to get anything going on with his blood pressure spiking, is kind of how I understand it," Hoiberg told reporters via ESPN.

The Bulls, who are 2-2 in four preseason games, still have four games left before the 2015-16 NBA regular-season begins -- against Detroit Pistons on Wednesday, Charlotte Hornets on Oct. 19, Indiana Pacers on Oct. 20 and Dallas Mavericks on Oct. 23.

Hoiberg is quite sure that Rose will likely miss all four games. He also added that there is a chance that Rose will also not be available when they open their season against the Cleveland Cavaliers. And depending on the upcoming examinations, the 27-year-old superstar could also sit out the first week of the regular season.

"We got to make sure -- he hasn't really done anything and that will be a good two or three weeks where he has total inactivity, so just to throw him back out there going 100 percent with your speed and everything, you just don't want to take any risks, any chances, where it could be a lingering issue," Hoiberg added.

Rose has battled numerous career setbacks before, including left and knee injuries. Last season, Rose sustained a torn meniscus, but he managed to return before the postseason.

The six-year veteran averaged 17.7 points on top of 4.9 assists and 3.2 rebounds in 51 regular-season games. During their 12 playoff games, he posted 20.3 points to go along with 6.5 assists and 4.8 rebounds, but the Bulls were eliminated by the Cavaliers during the second round of the postseason.
