Jalen Rose Autographed Authentic Spalding Basketball

Jalen Rose was an important figure in basketball all throughout his career. As a highly ranked recruit coming out of high school, the point guard/small forward joined the Michigan Wolverines along with four other talented freshmen and they came to be known as the Fab Five. This group changed the landscape of basketball with their on-court success and their flashy style of play, as well as the way they dressed on the court. The Fab Five went on to make back-to-back appearances in the national championship game, including their freshman year. Rose’s success at Michigan earned him a first-round selection in the 1994 NBA Draft by the Denver Nuggets. He went on to have a great career that included an appearance in the NBA Finals and the NBA Most Improved Player award in 2000. After his playing career, Rose served many years as an NBA analyst on ESPN and hosted numerous shows. His popularity spanned the entire country and was responsible for the name Jalen becoming popular, especially among athletes to this day.
