The specials on the menu range from beverages to sweet treats concocted by Levy Restaurants — all with special nods to the former Chicago Bulls<\/a> star.<\/p>\n

The “Rose Cocktail” is a clarified margarita with reposado tequila, of which Rose is a fan. The drink includes a rose-infused ice cube with a red rose inside of it. One dessert is a cake pop built in the shape of a rose frosted with rose-red sprinkles. The other is a custom sugar cookie hand decorated with Rose’s No. 1 jersey icing, reminiscent of the white Bulls uniform he donned.<\/p>\n

For entree options, there’s an MVP burger and fries plus No. 1 nachos. The burger has double-smashed beef patties topped with Chicago-style Italian beef on a bun stamped “MVP,” referring to Rose’s 2011 MVP-winning campaign. The nachos include red and black tortilla chips hand cut to be No. 1 shaped.<\/p>\n

Chicago selected Rose at No. 1 in the 2008 NBA draft, and he spent seven seasons playing for his hometown team. He won Rookie of the Year honors in 2008-09, then became the youngest MVP in NBA history two seasons later, winning the award at 22.<\/p>\n

The Bulls have retired four numbers in franchise history: Jerry Sloan’s No. 4, Bob Love’s No. 10, Michael Jordan’s No. 23 and Scottie Pippen<\/a>‘s No. 33. The franchise announced<\/a> in August that it would add Rose’s No. 1 to the list after the game against the Boston Celtics<\/a> on Saturday.<\/p>\n

Since Rose was traded from Chicago to the New York Knicks<\/a> in 2016, no Bulls player has worn the No. 1 jersey. Now, that will be the case forever.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"When Derrick Rose gets his jersey retired at the United Center on Saturday, the franchise won’t just be…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":432849,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[557],"tags":[64,63,590,85],"class_list":["post-433355","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-nba","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-nba","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/433355","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=433355"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/433355\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/432849"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=433355"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=433355"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=433355"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
