Derrick Rose might be a role player now, but in his prime, he was an MVP-level player that dominated teams with the Chicago Bulls. Currently, he is out of the rotation for the New York Knicks but plays a key role as a leader within the team’s locker room.
As of right now, Derrick Rose is 34 years old, and it is clear that he is in the latter stages of his NBA career. In a recent interview with Shams Charania of The Athletic, Derrick Rose revealed that one of his goals after his career ends is becoming a team governor.
What do you see for yourself post-career? (Rose has made over $150 million during his playing career. In 2012, Rose also signed a deal with Adidas that was reported to be for $190 million over 14 years.)
I’m into ownership. I feel like I saved up enough. It’s not like I need a loan, I’m good. So I’m waiting. I’m waiting for my time.
We have seen former players join team ownership before. Dwyane Wade, for example, is currently a part-governor of the Utah Jazz right now. Perhaps we could see Derrick Rose do something similar in the future and purchase a stake in an NBA franchise.
Derrick Rose Isn’t Mad About The DNPs From The Knicks
Derrick Rose was previously asked about how it feels to have his playing time cut. The former star came up with a classy response, claiming that he “can’t complain” because the team is winning games.
“I can’t complain when we’re winning games,” Rose said. “If we were losing, I’d probably be mad. But we’re winning and playing basketball so I really can’t complain.”
There is no doubt that the New York Knicks have been a good team as of late, as they are on a seven-game winning streak as of right now. Hopefully, this ends up continuing for them, as they have a solid young squad. The addition of Jalen Brunson in the summer has clearly helped raise the talent level of that team, and the point guard is thriving as the primary floor general on the Knicks.
Derrick Rose could potentially be traded in the future due to the guard logjam on the Knicks, and he has been linked with a number of teams already. Hopefully, he ends up on a contending team that has real aspirations to win a championship, as that would round off his elite resume in the game.
