Derrick Rose’s Chicago high school Simeon Career Academy is now the first “Rose School.”
In partnership with Adidas, the Wolverines’ boys & girls basketball uniforms will feature DRose’s signature logo.
His loyalty to his hometown is the reason he made Simeon the first “Rose” school under the adidas brand. The shoe company announced this news in an Instagram post on Saturday. In October 2011, Rose signed a 14-year, $190 million contract with adidas.
“Derrick Rose’s journey began in high school at Simeon Career Academy, where he built the foundation for his career,” the post read. “His Simeon experience laid the groundwork for the legacy he continues to build. Together, we’re proud to announce Simeon as the first Rose school, continuing our mission to inspire and create opportunities for the next generation.”
