He averaged 8.0 points and 3.3 assists in 16.6 minutes as a bench piece. He will ...

Derrick Rose Unlikely To Return This Season rotoballer.com Fri 3/29/24 4:17 PM

Memphis Grizzlies guard Derrick Rose (groin) hasn't appeared in a game since February 28 and it looks as though he won't be returning for the rest of the season. According to Damichael Cole, since there are only two weeks remaining in the season and the Grizzlies are already eliminated from playoff contention, Rose is unlikely to take the court again this year. Since he's missed a lot of time, this won't affect that much of the rotation, and a lot of the younger players that have been seeing ...

Derrick Rose Remains Out On Tuesday Night rotoballer.com Mon 1/8/24 10:38 PM

Memphis Grizzlies guard Derrick Rose (hamstring) remains out on Tuesday versus the Dallas Mavericks. He has missed Memphis' previous three games because of a left hamstring strain, and he'll likely miss more time moving ahead. The oft-injured 35-year-old has averaged 8.4 points and 3.4 assists in 17 games this season, so he's not rostered in many fantasy leagues. However, with Ja Morant (shoulder) done for the year, Rose could see more minutes once he's fully healthy, meaning he's worth ...
