Derrick Rose’s 2017-18 season with the Cleveland Cavaliers was a tumultuous one, marked by injuries, personal struggles, and ultimately a trade. Rose’s season began with a serious ankle injury in the second game, which sidelined him for four games. Upon his return, Rose continued to experience pain and eventually took a leave of absence from the team in November 2017 to consider his NBA future. After returning to Cleveland in December, Rose played in nine more games before being traded to the Utah Jazz at the trade deadline. Rose’s time with the Cavaliers was marred by reports of dissatisfaction with his role on the team and allegations that the organization did not fully support his recovery from injury. Despite the challenges, Rose rejuvenated his NBA career with the Minnesota Timberwolves, averaging 14.2 points and 2.6 assists in the 2018 playoffs and 18.0 points and 4.3 assists during the 2018-19 season.
