The 6-foot-7 Rosario is the one that concerns coach Chot Reyes the most since he's part of the team's starting unit.
Rosario already had his MRI test and will know the result by this week.
TNT coach Chot Reyes is hoping to see Troy Rosario back in action soon.
"He has some pain and swelling in his knee and it seems there are bone spurs as well," said Reyes.
"We hope it’s not bad, but we have to prepare for the worst," added the TNT coach. "Pero hindi naman ACL."
Reyes added the cases of both Reyes and Rosario are more of wear and tear more than anything else.
