The New York Knicks captured headlines on Wednesday afternoon, when the team acquired point guard Derrick Rose from the Chicago Bulls.
Looking to go all in and build a team around Carmelo Anthony and Kristaps Porzingis, the Knicks are hoping a healthy Rose can have a resurgent season and there can be victories in Madison Square Garden yet again.
The trade for Rose also gives the Knicks a shot at some good free agents, as they will now have a little more star power to add to their offer. While what they do next remains to be seen, they are ready to introduce Rose to the city.
On Thursday, the team officially unveiled the jersey that he will be wearing on their Snapchat account.

The little rose emojis on the photo are a nice touch and this will probably become one of the new hot sellers in the game. It’s interesting to see that he won’t be wearing his classic No. 1 with New York, but it’s always time for new beginnings.
Hopefully those new beginnings are staying healthy and leading his new team to the playoffs.
