The Bulls celebrated the long and storied basketball career of Chicago native Derrick Rose on Saturday at the United Center. Rose retired in September after 15 NBA seasons.

Rose’s No. 1 will be the fifth Bulls player jersey to be retired, joining Jerry Sloan (No. 4), Bob Love (No. 10), Michael Jordan (No. 23) and Scottie Pippen (No. 33). The NBA retired Bill Russell’s jersey (No. 6) across the league after he passed away in 2022.

"I can't put it into words," the Knicks' Jalen Brunson said. "I'm so thankful to have him as a role model, as a mentor. That's my man and I love him to death."
