It would rock on both directions.
You can also check if it's the wheel bearing by asking someone to press the brake pedal while you shake the wheel. If the backlash disappears when pressing the brake, it's defnitely the wheel bearing.

+1, If it is the wheel bearing you will have grinding noise when runnning. Plus, if it come to a point that you can rock your wheel at any direction, your wheel along with the axle is bound to come out, very dangerous at this point.
