Jalen Rose is a current ESPN broadcaster and retired NBA player who competed in the league for 14 seasons from 1994-2007 with the Denver Nuggets (1994-1996), Indiana Pacers (1996-2002), Chicago Bulls (2002-2004), Toronto Raptors (2004-2006), New York Knicks (2006) and Phoenix Suns (2006-2007). In total for his career, Rose recorded a per game average of 14.3 points, 3.5 rebounds and 3.8 assists. Since his playing days, Rose has enjoyed a successful broadcasting career and has worked on such ESPN programs as “Get Up!” and “Jalen and Jacoby”.
For the 1994-1995 season, his rookie campaign, Rose averaged 8.2 points per game for the Nuggets and was an NBA All-Rookie Second Team selection. The 1999-2000 season saw him start 80 games for Indiana, posting then-career-highs in points (18.2) and rebounds (4.8) per game. Those numbers were significantly higher than Rose’s stat sheet the prior year and, as a result, he was named the NBA Most Improved Player. From 1999-2003, Rose never averaged less than 18.2 points per game. He put up 20.5 points per game in 2000-2001, setting a new career-best, before breaking his own mark in 2001-2002 with 21.2 points per game.
Born on January 30, 1973 in Detroit, Michigan, Rose played collegiately at the University of Michigan from 1991-1994 and was part of the legendary “Fab Five” recruiting class along with Jimmy King, Juwan Howard, Chris Webber and Ray Jackson. He helped lead the Wolverines in 1992 and 1993 to back-to-back appearances in the NCAA Finals before being picked in the 1st round by Denver in the 1994 NBA draft.
