Derrick Rose: It is a thought, but the rebuild could be me going, too
Rose to leave the Knicks by the trade deadline?
The Knicks are trying to trade Carmelo Anthony by the trade deadline. But Derrick Rose aknowledges that he could be traded in the upcoming weeks considering that his contract will expire at the end of June.
Per ESPN, "Im on a one-year deal so I can't talk that much about it. The rebuild could be me going, too. I don't know," he said. "My job is to focus whenever I'm on the court, just try to win games, try to be positive, try to get better. Like I said from the beginning, I'm chasing something. I'm trying to get back to myself and I'm trying to play consistent games."
Rose, a free agent this summer, acknowledged he has thought about the possibility that he could be traded. He knows that players in the final year of their contracts are attractive trade chips. But the 28-year-old said Friday he hasn't had conversations with management or his agent, B.J. Armstrong, about any potential deals.
"It's something that hasn't been out there. It is a thought, like [I'm on] a one-year deal," Rose said. "It is a business. Just got to wait and see."
