Rose gets 5-year extension

Chicago Bulls point guard Derrick Rose has been rewarded with a five-year extension worth $94 million.

Rose, who is from Chicago, has become one of the stars of the league and clearly the team leader.

The deal works well for both sides, as Chicago locks up its star and Rose gets great financial security and stability.

The Bulls likely saw how the Chris Paul situation developed and didn’t want a similar problem down the road with Rose.

His teammates are excited that the league’s reigning MVP is locked up and won’t be going anywhere anytime soon.
