If he didn’t come to Memphis to be Ja Morant’s nanny, Derrick Rose began to prove it against the Pacers. The playmaker certainly only played 14 minutes in the Grizzlies’ overtime victory, but it was enough to do good things.
The 2008 MVP compiled 13 points at 6/8 shooting with two assists. He hurt Indiana with his penetrations even if he can obviously still do better.
“Things are different for me compared to New York and Tom Thibodeau”, he reacted after the meeting. “I try to make the right choice at the right time. I’m learning defense systems. I’m trying to acclimatize and learn from my teammates: where and when do they want the ball? I want to set the pace, without losing the ball. »
This first match in Memphis is also a return for Derrick Rose, who played for the Tigers in the NCAA.
“It’s still so surreal. I haven’t realized yet, does he deliver. “I’m lucky to have this opportunity and that’s why I came back. »
