Chicago Bulls guard & reigning Rookie of the Year Derrick Rose put himself in some exclusive company on Thursday, as he became the 1st Bull since Michael Jordan in ’98 to be elected as an NBA All-Star.
Rose is showing no signs of a sophmore slump, as he’s averaging a career-high 19.7 PPG & is on a tear in January with 23.1 PPG in 50.5% shooting in 15 games.
Derrick will also participate in the Rookie/Sophmore Challenge on February 12th from Dallas, Texas & will face off against fellow teammate & Bulls rookie Taj Gibson.
