– Jalen Rose was clearly the fan favorite during Saturday’s Ally Challenge Celebrity Shootout at Warwick Hills Golf and Country Club. Rose, the former Michigan and NBA star, stepped up to his tee ball and promptly popped it up. The ball went about 30 feet in the air and maybe – maybe! Rose proceeded to try and catch the ball before hit the ground, barely missing it before teeing it up again. Fortunately for Rose, he was given a mulligan and hit worm-burner down the fairway before surrendering the tee.

It ended up being known as the Fab Five shoe,” Rose said on Monday (Aug. 22) at his annual golf outing for the Jalen Rose Leadership Academy in Detroit. How about royalties on black socks?

When Jalen Rose thinks about some of the more prosperous periods in Detroit Pistons history, he sees a trend. In the late 60s and early 70s, Detroit had two All Stars in the backcourt, Dave Bing and Jimmy Walker (Rose’s biological father). “I think we now have another All-Star backcourt in Jaden Ivey and Cade Cunningham,” Rose said on Monday (Aug. 22). Rose, a Detroit native, played in the NBA for 13 years and has been an NBA analyst for ESPN since his playing career ended in 2007. “I’m really excited for the potential of our team,” Rose said during his annual golf outing in support of his public charter school in Detroit.

Jalen Rose says he was forced to take an expensive Uber from Milwaukee to Detroit after his car service canceled on him. “I was going to have the car pick me up, take me to the city, five hours, get me there 3:30. I looked down at my phone, plan is in motion except the car service called me to cancel,” Rose said on his show. Now I’m freaking out.”Rose says he had to be back in Detroit to do “Jalen and Jacoby” the next morning and he also had an interview to do. “Yes, the dog was in the car,” Rose replied.

Jalen Rose is fine all but one selection for the American men’s basketball team headed to the Olympics. He believes Kevin Love, a forward for the Cleveland Cavaliers, is undeserving. Kevin Love is on the team because of tokenism. “I’m excited about the roster and I assume, and I know, we’re going to win the gold,” Rose said during Thursday’s Jalen and Jacoby podcast, hosted by ESPN. Rose sees similar favoritism being shown toward Love, a 32-year-old five-time All Star who averaged 12.2 points and 7.4 rebounds this past season for Cleveland.

As NBA analysts go, Jalen Rose is more qualified than most to get inside Juwan Howard’s head. Rose commended Howard for “how he comported himself” since taking the job. Rose credited Howard’s predecessor, John Beilein, for putting Michigan basketball “back on the map” after what Rose called a long period of irrelevance. I know he’s excited, he and his staff, about coaching (them).”At the end of his Howard comments, Rose addressed Eisen’s original question. Rose doesn’t believe Michigan fans should be concerned about losing their star coach.

On Thursday, news broke that none of the three officers involved in Breonna Taylor’s death were charged with her killing. A grand jury decided to indict just one officer, on first-degree wanton endangerment charges. Rose appeared on ESPN during halftime of the network’s Thursday night playoff game between the Miami Heat and Boston Celtics. Rose has spoken on social justice issues throughout his time at ESPN and particularly this season. The NBA has been supportive as well, with most players wearing social justice messages, including “Black Lives Matter,” on their jerseys.

Former athletes have a pipeline to advance into sports media as commentators, and many popular shows feature a Black man or woman as a host. Instead, it turned into a forum for players to express their feelings about racial and social issues after practice was canceled. Brown added that athletes who speak out need to be articulate, informed and mindful that their words have staying power. For Rose, the era of athletes sticking to sports is over in part because President Donald Trump hasnt been shy about criticizing NBA and NFL players who disagree with him. If hes acknowledging NFL players who are kneeling and he says, They deserve to be fired, that now becomes a sports topic.
