DERRICK ROSE'S SON PJ Rose Can Hoop Like His Dad! 9 Years Old!

Derrick Rose's young son PJ Rose is hooping! We caught 9 year old PJ and the Intruders at the Matteson Youth Basketball League near Chicago where they went 2-0 against other 3rd-4th graders!
The New York Knicks point guard (and former NBA MVP with the Chicago Bulls) Derrick Rose's son was already showing off his high basketball IQ as well as his skills. Cant' wait to see what the future holds for PJ Rose!

Yo lool these little kids really hooping tho😂😂. They are aware of the rules and how to play with their teammates. Usually kids at this age just run around and one or two of them actually know how to play properly. Im quite impressed. Basketball evolution lol.

Those coaches are doing a great job! These kids know how to really play the game at such an early age. Pushing the ball up the court, looking for teammates, rebounding, blocking out and I even saw a couple of ManuSteps! The unselfishness of all the players on both teams really stuck out to me. I thank GOD for the game of basketball. It is such a wonderful sport and it can be a lot of fun no matter your age or skill level.
