The NBA has seen many players with great potential have their careers derailed from injuries. One of the biggest “what-ifs” in NBA history is former Chicago Bulls great, Derrick Rose.

Rose is the youngest MVP winner in NBA history and if he didn’t suffer his ACL injury in 2012, he may have won many more MVPs. Today is Rose’s birthday, as the now retired former NBA player turns 37.

Fans on social media quickly showed the former Bulls great love on social media.

 

 

 

From all of us here at Ball Exclusives, happy birthday Derrick Rose.
