The Chicago Bulls will retire Derrick Rose's No. 1 jersey to the rafters next season, ESPN has learned.

Rose, a Chicago native, played eight seasons with the Bulls, becoming the youngest MVP in NBA history, and is now being honored as a fabric of the organization.

Rose was the No. 1 pick in the 2008 NBA draft, won Rookie of the Year honors in 2008-09 and then received the MVP award in 2011.

Rose told ESPN on Thursday he'd like to see his jersey hanging from the rafters at the United Center someday

"I would love that," Rose told ESPN in a sit-down interview in Chicago.
