Synopsis:

In 2012, Derrick Rose was on top of the world. After a sometimes challenging early life spent in Chicago's Englewood neighborhood, Rose had made his lifelong dream of playing in the NBA a reality. His game had blossomed with his hometown Bulls, and the city proudly claimed him as their own as he raked in the Rookie of the Year award, a string of All-Star appearances, and of course, an MVP title. But the world he'd created came crashing down, on and off the court. I'll Show You is both a defiant rebuttal and a promise kept, as Rose opens up in a way the world has never seen before. The reserved star, normally a man of few words in front of microphones or cameras, allows readers a frank look at his life and mindset, from his childhood up through his career resurgence in Minnesota. Fans will not want to miss this unvarnished account of Rose's journey so far.
