Derrick Rose could of been a Hall of Famer. But due to his torn ACL injury, he has transformed from the next Michael Jordan, to just another 6th man moving from different teams searching for a ring. If it wasn't for his injuries, who knows how great he could be now.
Currently, he is playing for the Minnesota Timberwolves, he also played with the Cavaliers this year. Then traded to the Timberwolves in March. Derrick Rose has played for four total teams. He got drafted to the Bulls, traded to the Knicks for the 2016-2017 season. Then traded to the Cavs, offered to the Jazz, but waived him. Ultimately leaving Rose in Minnesota.
D Rose may never be able to overcome his past injuries and become the player everyone knows he could have been. He had unbelievable stats in his first four years in the NBA, but imagine what he could have accomplished. Averaging triple-doubles without padding your own stats(Russell Westbrook), most points in a game, most MVPs. Who knows?
