After 16 years in the NBA, former MVP point guard Derrick Rose is retiring from the league.
The No. 1 pick in the 2008 NBA draft and Chicago native made his mark for seven years on his hometown team before spending the next nine jumping between the New York Knicks, Cleveland Cavaliers, Minnesota Timberwolves, Detroit Pistons and Memphis Grizzlies.
Rose's meteoric rise as one of the league's most exciting players was thwarted by injuries; most notably his ACL tear during the first round of the 2012 playoffs which was followed by a plethora of lower leg issues.
