Jimmer Fredette has captured the attention of everyone from league executives to NBA players.

Fredette, who spent the summer working out with NBA players at the USA Basketball camp, has drawn high praise from stars like Kevin Durant and Deron Williams. The latest to chime in is MVP candidate Derrick Rose.

“He has not surprised me at all with what he is doing this year,” Rose said. “I love watching him play. The way he played in the USA thing, he was great; he played with a lot of confidence. He is not intimidated by anyone. You could tell he wanted to be there and I am happy for him.”

Rose believes Fredette’s shooting ability will translate well to the next level.
