In addition to his collaboration, Ye revealed a number of pictures on Twitter inciting more forthcoming Yeezy ideas

After coming into the NBA at No. 1, Derrick Rose quickly became a top tier player winning rookie of the year. In his 3rd season, Rose made history after becoming the youngest player to win regular-season MVP at age 22. Following his early success, Rose signed an illustrious 14-year contract with Adidas worth $185 million. Although the peak of his career was rear-ended by consecutive injuries, he continued to persevere. Now the 3x all-star is heading into his 13 seasons as a Detroit Piston.

There is no word on when to expect the new “DZY” footwear. Although some may call its aesthetic bizarre, it is only a sample.

[WATCH] New Documentary Shows Derrick Rose’s Emotional Reaction After Being Traded From Chicago

Until the end of time, Chicago will love Derrick Rose and Derrick Rose will love Chicago. That fact is evident in the new documentary, Pooh: The Derrick Rose Story, that showed the emotion felt by the point guard when he found out he was traded to the New York Knicks in 2016.

The documentary is produced by Stadium and follows the story of Rose from growing up in Englewood on Chicago’s south side to his tumultuous NBA career.

In the clip shared online, Rose takes a call from his agent and another former Bull, BJ Armstrong, who let him know the trade is going to happen to take him away from his home for the first time. The moment captured D.Rose breaking down at the moment but receiving words of encouragement from Armstrong to get ready for the next part of his career. He pulls it together to discuss it for the film.

“You do hear about trade rumors here and there, and this last one, the Knicks one was pretty big because it caught a lot of people’s attention,” Rose shared. “I’m good with being in Chicago. We’re trying to win there, get back on the right track, so that’s the only thing I can think about. Being in Chicago, but I do hear the rumors. I never really thought about packing up and leaving or demanding a trade.”

The 2018-19 season was a resurgence for Rose, giving him strong support in All-Star consideration and was an early candidate for the sixth man of the year award. Recently, Rose and Armstrong expressed they would be open to a return to the United Center on the west side of Chicago if the opportunity presented itself. The current Bulls team looks very different from the one he left, after a rebuild, the team is built around a strong and young core led by Lauri Markannen, Zach Lavine, Wendell Carter Jr., and Otto Porter. The team is also projected to receive a top-four pick, with hopes to possibly add Zion Williamson or Ja Morant to the fold.

Check out the clip from the documentary below.

Derrick Rose’s Rape Accuser Has Appeal Case Shut Down

The resurgence of Derrick Rose on the basketball court has been one of the NBA’s feel-good stories of the current season but was marred by the accusations of rape that hung over the player’s head. However, the case is finally done for good after an appeal made by the accuser was effectively shut down thus ending the matter.

The Blast reports:

According to court documents obtained by The Blast, the appeals court ruled that the lower court verdict, which dismissed the case against the NBA star, will be affirmed.

Lawyers for Rose and his accuser battled it out before the court last month and the judges took a couple weeks to reach their decision.

The order states the lower court did not rule in error when allowing photos, texts, and testimony to be presented in court, despite Jane Doe’s argument none of it should have been shown.

They denied Rose’s attempt to sanction his accuser stating, “Although this Court affirms the district court’s evidentiary decisions and the judgment of the district court, it does not find that Doe’s attorneys brought a frivolous appeal.”

The matter stems from a 2013 case in where Jane Doe accused Rose and two of his friends of alleged gang rape. In 2016, a jury found that Rose and the men were not liable with all jurors voting unanimously in Rose’s favor.

D Rose Back: NBA Players Salute Derrick Rose’s 50-Point Explosion

Utah Jazz v Minnesota Timberwolves

Derrick Rose was one of the most promising NBA players of his era, but injuries robbed him of his potential for greatness. However, on Halloween night D Rose was back and exploded on the court for 50 points, reminding many of us of just how special a player he was.

Rose and the Minnesota Timberwolves took on the Utah Jazz at their home base of the Target Center in a tense back and forth contest. While Donovan Mitchell and Rudy Gobert had big games for the Jazz, Rose put the Timberwolves on his back and even played the most minutes with 41.

The whole league has been going up for Derrick Rose, understandably so. The moment was big for Rose too as he was wracked with emotion and embracing his new position as a role player and locker room leader. In fact in the post-game interview, Rose noted that he’s never been this manner of player but is now trying to use his experience to guide the young team to greatness alongside the talented Jimmy Butler.

Check out the reactions below.
