Derrick Rose, a veteran point guard for the Minnesota Timberwolves had a historic night Wednesday night. Rose, who was the NBA’s 2011 MVP has had a history of injuries throughout his career and these injuries have severely affected his play since. Including injuries to his meniscus and his ACL, which for a basketball player is a very serious injury to have. Rose’s pure athleticism was one of the better talents the NBA has seen before he was injured. Rose since has not been much, he’s either been hurt or coming off the bench as a role player. Last night, however, a flashback of 2011 as Rose had 50 points, 6 assists, and 4 rebounds. Timberwolves fans hope Rose can keep that going as they play the Golden State Warriors Friday.
