Rose Nearly Reached Deal With Croatian Team

Oct 25, 2011 11:24 AM

Derrick Rose received a concrete offer from a team in Croatia, but he will not be playing for the team unless the lockout becomes prolonged.

"We reached an economic agreement, but we could not find an agreement about the games," KK Zagreb's Hrvoje Ciketiae said in the interview. "Rose for sponsor obligations would have missed three Euroleague games. And we could not allow that."

The team said it wanted to sign Rose for 22 games.
