It’s that time of year when everyone starts dressing up for Halloween, and that includes notable athletes. Sometimes they dress up as one another as Luke Kuechly did when he dressed up as teammate Cam Newton.
Olympian Lolo Jones also dressed up as an athlete, Chicago Bulls point guard Derrick Rose. She also donned crutches to poke fun at Rose’s repeated injuries.
these are my crutches and and my brace that I have to wear. I'm gonna rebound like D.Rose #Halloween #postsurgery pic.twitter.com/KXcSDbL0wH

Some people thought it was a low blow and ridiculed Jones for her costume, but she responded and wasn’t backing down. She points out that she is actually injured and the crutches are not functional, not just part of the costume.
So its ok for @RealMikeWilbon to dress as Rose but not me and I'm actually injured 🤔 fans: #WhoWoreItBest pic.twitter.com/Ai4fRa5yC2

Yes real injury. I hope to get my brace off Sunday and walk for more than 2 mins without crutches next week. https://t.co/MRjLNELBHN

Crutches are as real as my medical post surgery bills I've been getting https://t.co/WVu85PqPCo
