The Chicago Bulls set a date to loft the jersey of hometown star Derrick Rose into the United Center rafters. The team announced Thursday that Rose’s No. 1 jersey will be retired Jan. 24 in a ceremony after a home game against the Boston Celtics.

Chicago legend and former NBA MVP Derrick Rose will see his jersey raised to the rafters of United Center when the Bulls honor him on Jan. 24, 2026, the team announced. Former Chicago Bulls star Derrick Rose speaks to the audience during a half-time celebration for Derrick Rose Night at the United Center on Jan. 4, 2025 in Chicago, Illinois.

Rose's No. 1 will be the fifth number to ever be retired by the Bulls, joining Jerry Sloan (No. 4), Bob Love (No. 10), Michael Jordan (No. 23) and Scottie Pippen (No. 33). It will also mark the first time the Bulls have retired a number in more than 20 years, as Pippen was the last player to have his number retired on Dec. 9, 2005.
