Just completing his 14th year in the NBA, Derrick Rose had an average performance of 8 points, 1.9 rebounds, and 3.3 assists with a decent shooting record of 46.1% from the field.
Rose’s playtime received a significant reduction this season, primarily attributed to his age factor. Despite this, he’s not letting it extinguish his professional basketball career.
The 14-year NBA veteran joined the Memphis Grizzlies in this season. Although he didn’t garner significant playtime.
Although. Derrick Rose had an injury-plagued 2023-24 season. He joined many of his fellow Memphis Grizzlies players who got hurt, limiting his appearance to just 24 games, seven of which he started.
