Knicks point guard Derrick Rose, in his first public comments about his upcoming civil trial in a sexual assault case, said he’s not worried because he will be “proven innocent” and hasn’t done “anything wrong.”

Rose said there’s a possibility he will miss time during his first Knicks training camp, and said he has no idea whether the case will be settled before the trial starts on Oct. 4, the same day the Knicks open their preseason schedule in Houston.

“I’m not really worried about it,’’ Rose said Monday at the Knicks’ Media Day function at the Ritz-Carlton in White Plains. “But if I do have to miss time, it’s a part of it. Of course I don’t want to be in this position. It is what it is. I’m going to let my lawyer team handle it.”

Rose is being sued for $21.5 million regarding a 2013 incident in which his former girlfriend alleges she was gang-raped by Rose and two friends.

The Los Angeles Police Department confirmed having an “open criminal investigation” into the allegation. Rose said he was unaware of the criminal investigation, but realizes the case has garnered mounds of negative publicity in recent weeks.

“I’ve handled it pretty good,’’ Rose said, appearing composed when answering questions on the subject. “I haven’t really been thinking about it. I’ve been thinking about the team, how I’m going to jell as a team and getting used to the organization. The GM, president, Phil [Jackson], Steve [Mills], getting used to them. As far as the trial, it’s something I can’t think about. It’s not true. I will be proven innocent.”

Jackson said Friday that Rose isn’t losing sleep over the matter, and on Monday, Rose said the same when asked about a potential out-of-court settlement.

“All this legal terms, it’s my first time learning the system. My concern is just playing well this year. I can’t think about the case. I felt I didn’t do anything wrong. I can’t let that distract me with the year I have ahead of me,’’ Rose said.

“I just feel right now I have a big year ahead of me. The team I have, that’s why I hired them to handle this case where they’re out there doing a good job, handling everything and giving me time to focus on what I have to focus on. That’s straight basketball.’’

The Post reported Friday that if Rose loses a civil trial, it could lead police to increase their attention to the “open’’ case.

“It’s the first time I’m hearing about it,’’ Rose said. “I’m not worried about it. I don’t think I’ve done anything wrong.’’

Jackson traded for Rose in late June, obtaining the 2011 MVP to fill a vacuum at point guard. At the time, Jackson was vague on how much the Knicks had investigated the background of the civil suit. Rose will participate in his first Knicks practice Tuesday at their Tarrytown headquarters before the club moves its camp to West Point.

Rose, plagued by three knee surgeries in recent years, talked up his offseason program.

“It is the most time I’ve had to relax and have leisure time,’’ Rose said. “This summer I had most time to focus on basketball and just relax.’’

Knicks shooting guard Courtney Lee worked out with Rose in Los Angeles and during voluntary workouts the last two weeks.

“It reminds me of the MVP DRose,’’ Lee said. “He’s showing a lot of athleticism.’’

New Knicks center Joakim Noah was permitted to skip Media Day and the first day of practice due to a family issue.
