The New York Knicks kept Derrick Rose past the trade deadline without any plan of giving him meaningful minutes for the rest of the season.
While there’s no discussion about contract buyout yet, a title contender is interested in signing Rose if ever he becomes available.
According to Bleacher Report’s Chris Haynes, the Phoenix Suns are reportedly monitoring Rose’s situation with the Knicks as the playoffs draw closer.
