Rose announced Thursday via his personal Instagram account that he has retired from professional basketball. Selected by the Bulls with the No. 1 overall pick in the 2008 NBA Draft, Rose immediately established himself as one of the game's top point guards upon entering the league. After claiming Rookie of the Year honors, Rose was named NBA MVP during his third season in 2010-11, becoming the youngest player in league history to win the award at 22 years old. Unfortunately for Rose, that 2010-11 campaign would prove to be his peak, with a torn ACL suffered during the 2012 playoffs and a meniscus injury suffered in November 2013 costing him nearly two full seasons and significantly altering the trajectory of his career. Rose never made another All-Star team after suffering the two major knee injuries, but the 35-year-old still turned in a productive 16-year career and was often a solid secondary scoring option across his stops with the Bulls, Knicks, Cavaliers, Timberwolves, Pistons and Grizzlies. Rose had been under contract with the Grizzlies heading into the 2024-25 season, but he requested his release earlier this week so that he could officially head into retirement.

Derrick Rose Latest News
Brings ends to 16-year career
Rose announced Thursday via his personal Instagram account that he has retired from professional basketball. Selected by the Bulls with the No. 1 overall pick in the 2008 NBA Draft, Rose immediately established himself as one of the game's top point guards upon entering the league. After claiming Rookie of the Year honors, Rose was named NBA MVP during his third season in 2010-11, becoming the youngest player in league history to win the award at 22 years old. Unfortunately for Rose, that 2010-11 campaign would prove to be his peak, with a torn ACL suffered during the 2012 playoffs and a meniscus injury suffered in November 2013 costing him nearly two full seasons and significantly altering the trajectory of his career. Rose never made another All-Star team after suffering the two major knee injuries, but the 35-year-old still turned in a productive 16-year career and was often a solid secondary scoring option across his stops with the Bulls, Knicks, Cavaliers, Timberwolves, Pistons and Grizzlies. Rose had been under contract with the Grizzlies heading into the 2024-25 season, but he requested his release earlier this week so that he could officially head into retirement.
Parting ways with Memphis
Rose (groin/back) was waived by the Grizzlies on Monday, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports. Rose missed the end of the 2023-24 campaign due to back and groin injuries, and it's not yet clear whether those issues will impact his availability for the start of the regular season this year. However, he'll need to seek out other opportunities with approximately a month remaining before Opening Night.
Expected to miss rest of season
Rose (groin/back) will likely miss the remainder of the 2023-24 campaign, Damichael Cole of The Memphis Commercial Appeal reports. Rose was given a three-week return timetable after being diagnosed with low back and groin soreness in early March. However, it doesn't make sense to rush the veteran back with the Grizzlies out of playoff contention. Rose struggled to stay healthy all season and made just 24 appearances (seven starts), averaging 8.0 points, 3.3 assists and 1.9 rebounds in 16.6 minutes. Rose is under contract with the Grizzlies for one more season.
Set for multi-week absence
Rose will be re-evaluated in three weeks after being diagnosed with right osteitis pubis stemming from an injury suffered on Feb. 28 against Minnesota, Damichael Cole of The Memphis Commercial Appeal reports. Rose is dealing with the lingering soreness in his lower back and groin, which appears set to sideline him for Memphis' next nine games, at least. The veteran guard carries shutdown risk as well, especially if the Grizzlies prioritize maximizing minutes for recent two-way signee Jordan Goodwin.
Remains out Monday
Rose (back) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Nets. Rose will miss a third straight game due to back soreness. The veteran's next chance to suit up will come Wednesday in Philadelphia.
Won't play Saturday
Rose (back) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Trail Blazers. Rose will miss both halves of the back-to-back set against Portland after leaving Wednesday's loss to Minnesota early. The veteran's next chance to suit up will come Monday in Brooklyn.
Not playing Friday
Rose (back) has been ruled out of Friday's game against the Trail Blazers. Rose left Wednesday's 110-101 loss to the Timberwolves with back soreness and didn't return, and given his injury history, it's not surprising that he won't be available for this one. The Grizzlies are playing a back-to-back set against Portland on Friday and Saturday, and it remains to be seen if Rose will be available for the second half of that set.
Doesn't return after early exit
Rose left Wednesday's 110-101 loss to the Timberwolves with back soreness and didn't return. He logged two points (1-2 FG) and an assist across six minutes. Wednesday's game marked Rose's third straight appearance, a feat he hadn't accomplished since the middle of December. However, he was unable to finish the contest and will have a day to rest before the Grizzlies embark upon a home back-to-back Friday and Saturday against Portland. Expect Rose to miss at least one of those contests.
Questionable to return Wednesday
Rose is questionable to return to Wednesday's game versus the Timberwolves due to back soreness. Rose has dealt with injuries all season and is now questionable to return Wednesday after logging just six minutes. With Luke Kennard (illness) out, Jordan Goodwin will likely be relied upon to play heavy minutes.
