The Derrick Rose Logo Story

If you didn’t know, here’s the skinny on that cool new Derrick Rose logo created by adidas. Featuring three petals that revolve around the letter “D” and number “1″ in the center. The personal meaning behind the logo is twofold.

First, each petal is unique and represents Rose’s fast, creative drives to the basket, which he honed on the rough courts of Murray Park in the Englewood neighborhood of Chicago.

The logo also pays homage to his family – with mother Brenda in the center of the Rose and his three brothers Reggie, Allan and Dwayne as the petals – who guided him from that neighborhood to NBA superstardom.

Now you know.
