Derrick Rose will be honored at the United Center this season.
The Chicago Bulls announced that the team’s January 4 contest against the New York Knicks will be “Derrick Rose Night” and that the franchise will honor it’s former star player.
Rose, a Chicago native, announced his retirement following the 2023-24 season. He spent seven seasons with the Bulls and spent four with the Knicks.
Rose last played for the Bulls in 2015-16 but his time with the team was the best stretch of his career. He averaged 19.7 points, 6.2 assists, 3.7 rebounds in 406 games for the franchise and won the MVP in the 2010-11 season.
He saw his promising career get derailed by knee injuries but still was able to last 15 seasons and suit up in 723 games.
The night will honor his career and contributions to the Chicago basketball landscape, but does not currently have any acknowledgment of a jersey retirement. The franchise has retired five numbers and only four actually played for the franchise, with Bill Russell’s number being retired league-wide.
