Rose Grabs the No. 1 Spot: The Chicago Bulls selected Memphis freshman point guard Derrick Rose with the first pick in the NBA Draft, cementing Rose’s status as the best freshman in one of the most talented classes in NCAA history. Rose averaged 14.9 points, 4.5 points and 4.7 assists per game in leading the Tigers to the national championship game. He joins a guard-heavy lineup in Chicago. Rose passed Kansas State phenom Michael Beasley in draft status partially because of character concerns about Beasley. [6/26/08]
